Do you need proof of funds for EE/OINP if you are already employed and renting a home in Canada?

Title - obviously if I'm living, working and renting a home in Canada I can afford to live here, but at the same time living expenses mean I don't just have the required ~20,000$ proof of funds. Because I'm already living and working here on a work permit, do I still need proof of funds for an OINP or EE application?

Read what IRCC's website says:


Who does not need proof of funds
You don’t need to show that you have enough money to support yourself and your family if

• you’re applying under the Canadian Experience Class or
• you’re authorized to work in Canada and you have a valid job offer, even if you apply under the Federal Skilled Worker Program or the Federal Skilled Trades Program
