Hi
I am a single, PR living in canada, my rest of the family is back home.
I want to sponsor my both parents (Mother and Father), I am currently earning 33 K per annum.
What is the criteria of sponsorship, if I want to sponsor my two brotehrs who are 24 years old and 17 years old and are students and dependent on my parents?
regards

As far as I know - you cannot sponsor a sibling. Parents can only sponsor children that are 19 or younger, dependent, AND in full time education. As I say, as far as I know - no doubt one of the experts will be along to help soon Good luck!

What you currently earn is irrelevant. You must have already earned in past 12 months at least $41,642 to meet minimum income requirement to sponsor 4 family members. Future income, although important, doesn't count towards minimum income requirement.

You cannot sponsor your siblings, unless they are dependants of your parents and you sponsor parents and your brothers are included in application as their dependants.

Your 24 years old brother is no longer a dependant, unless he is financially dependent from parents, unmarried and full time student continuously since before turning 22.
