Road To Canada Forums

Hello. I posted this elsewhere but haven't had any replies, so maybe here might be better?

IMM5481 - question 3 asks for your (the sponsor's) net personal income. My husband is the sponsor and he lives with me in the US. Do we put $xxx USD or convert it to Canadian dollars? If we convert, is there a certain percentage we are supposed to use (i.e. when doing taxes I know there is one specific number published somewhere that one is supposed to use for converting)?

Thanks!

I'd convert it and show what rate you used to come to said amount.

CIC isn't too concerned about the actual amount, they want to ensure your income isn't from social assistance more then anything. Unless things changed, CIC has no min. income for spousal sponsorships.

Thank you :)
