So only the sponsor (but not the PA) need to provide proof of employment? Do you know where I can find more info about this?
My sponsor will start working on Sep 4 so he only has the contract. Is that ok?

FYI My wife is Oct 20 2017 applicant, I received sponsor approval today.
That should be fine. If he had any income last year, he could also bring the last notice of assessment from Canada revenue agency. Don't be surprised if they don't even look at it. I saw before people who were asked to bring these proofs, but the agent did not even look at them at the landing interview. It's definitely better to be on the safe side and bring whatever you can to prove he has income.

Since posting one's timeline is popular here, this is the one for my wife's Spousal PR application, done Inland. -- We applied for her 12 Sept 2017 and have the landing interview 24 Aug 2018. That's within the IRCC's 12 month plan, but just by about 3 weeks. Seems reasonably typical.
