Hello all I have a quick question regarding the sponsoring of my wife's children. I sponsored my wife from Asia and she arrived here earlier this year as a Canadian PR. She didn't bring her children (they WERE included in the original application) We wanted her to get settled here first and then bring them over. She is currently working (minimum wage however) We plan to start the application process for her 2 dependents (both teenagers) later this year. I know the CIC website says there is NO minimum income requirement so I was wondering if I would have to co-sign the application in order for us to combine our income? If I do have to sign does that make me fully responsible for them as well? Do I enter a sponsorship agreement for them until they reach a certain age? Am I automatically included in the sponsorship for her children as I sponsored as my wife? Any insight is welcome!! Thanks

1. As her spouse you co-sign.

They should have already been included as non-accompanying during the first sponsorship.
