If you are currently living in Canada and now want your family members to join you too, then this is the right time to get started.
If you are currently living in Canada and now want your family members to join you too, then this is the right time to get started. Canada has the most popular family reunification programs. This program is liberal and inviting unlike the other nations, for example, the United States and the United Kingdom. Such countries have the most prohibitive criteria with respect to the sponsorship of parents of immigrants working in the economy. However, in Canada, families of Permanent residents are welcomed to live along and enjoy various benefits enjoyed by the PR holder.
To support your family members in Canada, one has to meet the requirements laid down by the country. One of the important requirements to surpass is the Minimum Necessary Income Level (MNI). Meeting the minimum level of income in Canada is thus, an imprtant factor behind your chances to sponsor and bring your family members to Canada.
The income that is required to support your family is dependent on the quantity of relatives you are inviting in Canada, the quantity of relatives you wish to support, and where you are presently living in Canada.This is because the provisions for Quebec are different than rest of the provinces of Canada.
To be qualified to support your Parents in Canada, the MNI for past 3 years has to be furnished while applying. This means that if you are applying in the present year 2019, your pay in the years 2016, 2017 and 2018 must pass the MNI each year. This pay must include all the monetary perks and benefits received in the year.
To be qualified to support all other relatives other than your parents, provisions are different. In case of other relatives, you need not have 3 years of MNI criteria but minimum MNI requirement for 1 year only. This means that in order to support other relatives, you are just required to surpass the MNI for the year you are applying in. In the case of applying in 2019, this would be 2018 salary as MNI.
Following table will give you a detailed view regarding MNI as per the number of family members you are sponsoring:
Size of Family Unit 2016 2017 2018 2019*
2 persons $39,371 $39,813 $40,379 $41,069
3 persons $48,404 $48,945 $49,641 $50,492
4 persons $58,768 $59,426 $60,271 $61,303
5 persons $66,654 $67,400 $68,358 $69,528
6 persons $75,174 $76,015 $77,095 $78,414
7 persons $83,695 $84,631 $85,835 $87,307
If more than 7 persons, for each additional person, add $8,522 $8,616 $8,740 $8,894
The person sponsoring, before initiating the process, must show that they are meeting the Minimum Necessary Income (MNI) via Sponsorship agreement. This document must demonstrate the MNI to affirm that the sponsor is able enough to sponsor the relatives and keep them financially secured in Canada. In other words, this agreement is a kind of undertaking taken by the sponsor to take care of the relative coming to Canada on a permanent basis.
The MNI is controlled by the Statistics Canada’s low-salary cut-off (LICO), which is the pay edge beneath which a family is required to designate more prominent use. Note that this is a mutual agreement.
Not all relatives are qualified to be a part of the county. As a sponsor, you can call your parents, grandparents, spouse, child and other blood relatives.
Canadian residents as well as PR holders who have attained 18 years of age can be qualified to call their parents and other qualified relatives to Canada after meeting the MNI as well other basic requirements. These requirements are:
