Proof of funds required in spousal sponsorship

[DPassi]

Hi,
I have recently became a permanent resident of Canada and just moved into Vancouver.I got married three months ago in India and now I want to sponsor my husband for PR.There are few doubts that I have regarding proof of funds,like:
1)I am new in Canada and umemployed right now,Can I sponspor while not having a job?
2)Do I need to show enough funds to support my husband/s sponsor? If yes,How much and where? I have a savings but not in Canada.Do I have to show funds in Canada or India?
3) Will it be alright if I don't show either of these two I mean the funds and the job letter?

I assume you landed in Canada first to officially become a PR, then returned to India to get married, and are now back in Canada. Is that right?
1) Yes - you can sponsor without having a job.
2) It would be ideal to demonstrate either a job or savings to show that you can support your husband when he arrives. If that's not possible, then I would recommend that you include evidence of his earnings and savings - presumably he plans to work once he's in Canada.
3) See above. You should include something to assure IRCC that your husband won't end up on social assistance when he arrives here.

Thanks a lot.Is there any particular amount that IRCC expects a sponsor or applicant to show?
