For CEC applicants PoF is not required.

what if someone had already mentioned POST ITA in Express Entry , that they have X amount .
Because it isn't a requirement, IRCC will ignore it. But i assume if you are a CEC applicant this question would not be asked.

You will just write an LOE stating you were invited to apply under CEC... that is what i did and I uploaded the letter on that section.

So are you asking about POF or how to answer the question in the profile?

POF - not required, if the upload box appears just put an LOE

Profile - totally up to you, you can even put 0 and still meet the CEC requirements

No. She can say (in an LoE), that i filled it unknowingly, not knowing that for CEC applicants it is not required.

No, the LOE would say something along the lines of 'my invite to apply was issued under the CEC class, as such proof of funds is not required'. I personally did this and have my PR.

"Note: You do not have to meet the funds requirement if you were invited to apply under the Canadian Experience Class.

The system currently asks all applicants to provide a proof of funds document. If you don’t need to provide proof of funds, you must upload a letter explaining either that you have been invited to apply under the Canadian Experience Class, or that you have a valid job offer."

There was someone the other day who said "who cares what the site says" arguing that CEC applicants must provide POF :p
