I recently quit my job and I wanted to go back home until I get invitation for Express Entry. I am on Post Graduation Open Work Permit which expires in June 2017.
How do I show my financial support if I am currently not working in Canada?
I have chequing and savings account with Scotiabank. Thank you so much for your help.

Settlement funds
Settlement funds are not included in the CRS. They do, however, relate to the program requirements of FSWC and FSTC and may, by extension, be included in the MEC for Express Entry.
Candidates applying under the FSWC or the FSTC are required to meet the settlement funds requirement, unless they are currently authorized to work in Canada and have a qualifying offer of arranged employment from an employer in Canada.
Note: Candidates invited to apply under the Canadian experience class do not have to demonstrate that they meet the settlement funds requirement. If candidates are requested to include proof of funds when applying for permanent residence, they may upload a letter explaining why proof of funds is not needed under Proof of Means of Financial Support in the document checklist.
A change in an applicant’s family circumstances may affect the applicant’s eligibility, depending on the settlement funds required by the program to which they are applying.
For example, if an FSWC applicant submits an e-APR and later informs CIC that a new baby was born, the officer should re-assess the application to determine that the applicant still meets the minimum settlement funds as required by the IRPR. If the applicant does not have the required settlement funds, the application may be refused for not meeting program requirements. When an applicant fails to declare a child in their e-APR but later informs IRCC that said child exists (and existed when they submitted their e-APR), the application should also be assessed under section A11.2.
Processing officers should apply the principles of procedural fairness (PDF, 882.37 KB) when determining whether applicants meet program requirements for settlement funds.
