Hello guys,

My wife and I have submitted our application for Express Entry. Currently, we are both in Canada under Work-permit. However, only I am the one who is working at this moment. We still don't have 1-year Canadian experience to be eligible for CEC but we have enough points to get through Federal Express Entry (I believe in the very first draw).

I want to confirm with you regarding proof of funds. On the website, it says "You do not need proof of funds if 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".

I do have a job but my wife doesn't. I am the main applicant. Do we need to show funds in this case or just my job is enough?

Thank you in advance!
