Low income vs Sponsorship

[Seeker16]

Hi there,

Is temporary being low income (no income actually) and receiving benefits somehow will affect on sponsorship for family members in future?

I believe that the principle applied is that you must have stopped receiving any welfare for 12 months before you become eligible to sponsor again.

If you have just recently arrived as an economic immigrant how are you receiving welfare?
