Whats the definition of fulltime? leave on Monday and comeback on Friday are four days out of seven days a week. Isnt this more than half a year?
You should be returning to you home in Canada nightly unless you have business trip or personal vacation. The whole point of the PGP is for children to support their parents while in Canada.

Then what would be the proof of residency before and during sponsorship?

If I return nightly home, is US income eligible to be used as proof of income?

I am single. I am looking to find employment in the US near the border and receiving income from US. My question is, Is US income qualified?
"As a rule, financial resources must originate from Canadian sources. An officer can, however, consider income received from foreign sources if it was declared by the sponsor to the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) and appears on their Notice of Assessment (NOA). It is important to note that income abroad may not be a reliable indicator of future or stable employment in Canada. IRCC staff cannot easily verify if foreign income can be transferred to Canada and converting foreign income into Canadian dollars can be resource-intensive. In cases of default, collection and litigation, it is easier to recover income from Canadian sources.

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 to the CRA and appears on their NOA."

Thank you. What if this is a WEEKLY commute instead of daily? Say spend 3 nights in the US and come home to Canada on weekends.
