    FSW Proof of Funds Exemption

    Hello, my invitation says FSW. ITA was given July 22, 2025. By that time, I've only been in my Canadian work 11 months (I was hired August 15, 2024). I think a couple weeks after the invitation was accepted, I became eligible for CEC. But since the FSW invitation was accepted, there wasn't...

    Hi, I just have a question - I understand that FSW normally has PoF, but that there is also an exemption. When I submitted my PR application under FSW, about a month after AOR they gave me a compliance request letter asking for PoF - even though I meet the exemption requirements? This is from...
