This is regarding the requirement of meeting the settlement funds.
I think what OP is referring to, is regarding the proof of compensation requirement, consisting of showing evidence that your qualifying work experience is or was full-time, paid, and at least 1 year in duration. To meet that requirement, OINP requires that you show them the first and last pay stub of the relevant work experience. They must cover at least a year (Example: Paystubs for Jan 2020 and December 2020) You can also show all of your paystubs if you prefer (But if they need translation, might be expensive). Also, a full year of pay stubs can do the trick.
Your bank statements showing your payroll deposits can also be used as proof of compensation. You can use both or either document.
This is what they say regarding this on their website:
You must scan and upload proof of compensation for any work experience (foreign and Canadian) you include in your application.
Proof may include copies of:
- pay slips, pay cheques or pay statements for the first and last month of each period of work experience
- bank statements showing salary deposits for the first and last month of each period of work experience
- income tax documents
- letter(s) from employer(s) confirming your annual salary/hourly wage. These letters must explain why documentation to verify compensation for work performed is not available
