Parents Sponsorship - Form IMM5768E + CRA NOA

[nqtri]

Hi,

I am a first time sponsor filling out form IMM5768E to sponsor my parents over. I have never sponsored anyone before. In section 9 of the form, I'm a bit confused

It says "Details of your family members or persons included in undertakings in effect or not yet in effect..."

Then all the boxes below just mentions "previous undertakings". I understand this as I should leave this empty and not enter my parents' info here since they are not previous undertakings?

Also, in the Employment History, per employer, it asks for gross income, is this gross income for just the employment under this employer?

Lastly, do you all recommend sharing SIN or just upload the last 3 year NOAs?

Thank you!

Hi, I just have finished my mother application. I have uploaded all 3 NOA as well as given SIN number and authorization to pull my Tax Info from CRA as well. I think both ways are okay. If you will give them authorization as well, still they will pull same NOAs as you gonna be uploading.

for the details of employment, its bit tricky buy what i did, I have separated all salaries T4 incomes totaling 3 years taxes plus self employment income totaling 3 tax years and then just matched the grand total with my all 3 NOA incomes. This is easiest way to do it because the form itself did not allow to bifurcate or club overlapping incomes.

Previous undertaking means, if you have given any commitments to sponsor any other family member which is still active. They ask this question because they have to count your number of family members.

Example" you and your spouse are total 2 members and now you are sponsoring your mother and father so the family size will become 4 for counting the LICO (low income cut off). Now what previous undertaking means, just in case your spouse also have sponsored his/her mother of father or both, and by any chance her/his income was lower than required LICO then he/she might have taken you as co-signer, so if in case, you have co-signed that sponsorship also, then you have to write down total number of people you have given undertakings for other than your current parents application. If not given any before then no need to write down anything or you may put 0.
