"Isn't there different standards for U.S. Citizens married to Canadians?"
My husband and I recently recieved our Immigration package, and to tell the truth it is overwhelming...maybe that is the point. What am I supposed to start on first? There are 7 people living in our house and the application appendix says that I have to be making $44,000 in order to sponsor my husband...isn't that a bit unreasonable? I'm not the major breadwinner in the household, nor can I work as we have a 4 month old daughter that I am still nursing. Can my mother sponsor him? And if my daughter is both a Canadian and American citizen, do we have to include her on his Immigration form as a dependant? This is a bit much on behalf of the Canadian Government. If anyone has answers to my questions, I appreciate your knowledge, and your answers.

Sincerely,

Morgann Hall

Completion of the applicable forms is a typical first step in the process. Taking things one step at a time may make it seem less daunting.

In the cases of spousal sponsorship, the financial obligations of the sponsor can often be overlooked, as long as the sponsor is not on social assistance. In such a case you should apply demonstrating whatever income and other support is available.

Your daughter should be mentioned on his form as a dependent, but should be indicated as non-accompanying.

Hopefully, this will be enoughto get you started.
