I haven't been able to find a clear answer on this proof of funds questions for immigrating as a Skilled Worker:
My family size is 4 and I receive a US government retirement pension-for-life of over US$32,000/year. My visa assessment score is 72 and my wife is in the "occupations under pressure" health field. Does our guaranteed retirement pension satisfy the proof of funds requirement?

Thanks in advance to anyone with the answer.

I don't think so. The requirement is that you have CAN$18,895 for a family of four. That requirement is waived if you have pre-arranged employment, but I haven't read anything that says it's waived if you're receiving a pension.
