Hi
Hello,
I have one question regarding sponsoring my parents.
Me and my wife both are Canadian PR holder. If I am working in Columbus OH and staying in Windsor ON, I am commuting every week from Columbus to Windsor. My wife stays in Windsor ON and work there. So I don't have Canadian income but I pay taxes in Canada as well as in USA. My USA income is some were around $70000 per year.
So if this is the situation can I still sponsor my parents and along with them I also want to sponsor my wife's parents? Can some one help me in solving this situation?
Thanks,

The exceptions to the Canadian income rule are as follows:
• sponsors who commute from Canada to work in the U.S.A. can use their U.S.
employment income provided it is declared as income on their Canadian income
tax return;
• sponsors living in Canada who declare income from foreign sources on their
Canadian tax returns, can use this foreign income to meet the financial
requirements for sponsorship.
Discretionary approval of financial requirements is not possible.
