Do you have LMIA based work permit or do you qualify for CEC. In both cases, you don't have to show minimum funds.
Otherwise, below is the amount you have to show.

Number of
Family Members Funds Required
(in Canadian dollars)
1 $11,931
2 $14,853
3 $18,260
4 $22,170
5 $25,145
6 $28,359
7 or more $31,574
You do not have to show that you have these funds if:

you have a valid offer of arranged employment in Canada AND
you are currently working or authorized to work in Canada.

Thanks for the reply buddy. Yes, I have a valid LMIA.

The confusion is, I need to upload something in "proof of means" section. Please see the following screenshot: http://postimg.org/image/mrptg1dh1/

And this is the info they have provided:

So if not funds, then what do I upload it over here?

Thanks in Advance,

Rohit

I guess you are applying for PR. So the below content applies for you

Just get the statement from your banker here in Vancouver. You may take the same print to bank and they will issue you the required doc. Upload them as proof of financial support. No need to show minimum funds as you have LMIA based job.
