1st Question:

Can we use our Canadian income as non-permanent residence as the first few years of the 3 years income requirement to sponsor parents?

For example, my brother is currently under post graduate work permit (non- permanent residence) but he has Canadian income for 2018. Can he use that income as the first year of the 3 years to sponsor his parents? He is applying for permanent residency this year. Or the only income that can be counted for the 3 years are the income when he is already a permanent resident?


2nd question:

Can we sponsor our married parents separately. Let's say I sponsor my mother only, and my brother sponsor my father only? So we both just meet the income requirement for 2 family members each. Or my parents have to be sponsored together by only 1 of us, and that person have to meet the income requirement for 3 family members?


Thank you!
