I would just like to know if there is a required settlement funds for applicant with arranged employment? If yes, how much?
Since you are posting this thread in the "Foreign Worker" section of this forum, I take it you are talking about if you need a certain required amount in settlement funds as a potential temporary foreign worker going on a temporary work permit, who has an arranged job and a job offer, NOT a potential Permanent Resident going to Canada under one of the streams, such as Family, Skilled Worker, etc.. Is that right?
There is an exception if you are going as a Permanent Resident, where you don't need that $10,000 mentioned by another threader for a single applicant settlement fund if you do hhave a job offer and an arranged job.
Now, if you are coming in as a temporary foreign worker (which you should be since you are asking this in the Foreign Worker part of the forum), and since you have a job offer through it, I think you are fine not having to provide a large sum of settlement funds from the start, and definitely not $10,000. It's not exactly clear here or how much as the reply above was talking about the settlement funds and exception for a job offer for those seeking Permanent Residency, not going on a temporary work permit visa. But, I am pretty sure you will be okay with a job offer. I am unsure about this as well, since nobody ever mentions it about Temporary Foreign Workers. I have run across a number in the area of $2500, but am unsure if that applies to those with a job offer, or just those with an open temporary work permit.
