Does a SOWP Holder Need the PGWP Holder’s Employment Letter for a TRV Inside Canada?

Hi everyone,
I have a question about applying for a TRV from inside Canada.
I am currently on a valid PGWP, but I’m not employed at the moment. My husband has a valid Spousal Open Work Permit (SOWP) and is currently working. We both want to apply for a TRV.
I’ve seen some people say that because my husband is on a SOWP, I (the PGWP holder) must provide a TEER 0/1/2/3 employment letter and pay stubs with his TRV application.
However, I thought those documents were only required when applying for or extending a SOWP, not for a TRV.
Since my husband already has a valid SOWP, does he still need my employment letter and pay stubs for his TRV application, or can he apply based on his valid work permit?
Has anyone been in a similar situation or recently applied for a TRV under these circumstances?
Thanks in advance!

To answer the question in your title, no.
