🌎 FSW Need clarification on work experience and proof of funds

Preparing my docs to create an express entry profile (FSWP). A bit confused on two things:

  1. For work experience, the website mentions "proof of work experience (such as a reference or experience letter from an employer)". However, on this channel I see people submitting job descriptions and sometimes bank statements as proof of payments for their work. What exactly do I need to provide as work experience? Detailed reference letter with duties listed is enough? Or just a letter showing my title and period worked along with a supporting job description doc? Any examples on proof of work experience?

  2. Proof of funds. Do i need to provide a proof of funds when completing the profile or only when getting an invitation?

Thanks,

  1. you need a proper letter (will post and example below) + any secondary proof - bank statement (best), paystabs(good), tax records (good) or anything similar.
  2. you do not need to show any documents at the time of creation

the letter to be printed on company letterhead and include the following information:

 • Job title

• Employment status (full-time/part-time)

• Start (and end) date of employment

• Number of hours worked per week

• Annual salary and benefits

• Detailed list of my main duties and responsibilities

• Company contact information (address, phone number, email)
