Subject: INCOME REQUIREMENT !
  Hello everybody,

I have a question concerning the family class sponsorship: my husband and I have recently applied under family class and I am a little concerned whether my income will have an influence on our application. This is why: I work for a good company and have a good hourly pay, but I only work part time, 6 months a year, which brings me to about $10,000 annually. I also currently live with my mother and my broher, and am still going to the university, and my husband is a programmer. I am not, and have never been on welfare or any kind of social assistance. Will this small income prevent me in any way to be my husband´s sponsor?

Thank you!

Hi,

As far as I know, there is no income requirement for sponsoring a spouse. I believe there are only two exceptions to this and they are:

1) You live in Quebec and you & your husband plan on living there once he gets permanent residence.

and/or

2) Your husband has a dependent child that you will also be sponsoring.

I hope this helps.

Oops, I was wrong about the 2nd one. It should have been:

~If you are sponsoring your spouse and they have dependent children who have dependent children of there own.
