FINANCIAL EVALUATION

[geoffreydhalia]

Hello, I have a question about IMM 1283 Financial Evaluation. I am Canadian, my wife Indian, we have a 5 year daughter who was born in India and has not yet left the country. She is a Canadian citizen. I am sponsoring my wife. Do i need to include form 1283 in our application package? A couple of years ago we had the choice between Sponsorship Evaluation (5481) or Financial Evaluation...?

"
The Financial Evaluation form (IMM 1283) will help you assess if you (and your spouse or common-law partner, if he or she is co-signing the undertaking) will have the financial ability to support the persons you are planning to sponsor and their family members.

If you are sponsoring a person other than:

• your spouse, common-law or conjugal partner who has no family members, or
• your spouse, common-law or conjugal partner who has dependent children who have no dependent children of their own, or
• your child who has no children of his or her own
  
  You must prove that you have an annual income that is at least equal to the minimum necessary income to support the group of persons
