Hey, I have been trying to call CIC lately, but no luck. For LICO, I am 1500$ short in 2015, but with significantly higher incomes in 2016 and 2017. I have been invited for Sponsorship from the draw, and want to sponsor both my parents. Anyway, can I still apply, or I absolutely have to meet all 3 years for LICO for all 4 family members?

If no then WHAT'S MY BEST BET NOW? APPLY ANYWAY, WITH AN EXPLANATION LETTER MAYBE?
You have to meet the LICO

Ohh! :(

I will still take the risk. I make 15-20k more since 2016, and 1500$ less in 2015 is such a bad luck. I understand I will lose my Processing Fees money, but I may get the other Provincial money back if I get refusal? Also, refusal doesn't mean I can't re-apply right?

Why would you "take the risk"? You need to meet the LICO, and you don't. Ridiculous.

You will get rejection after 2-3 years
For that period you cannot apply again.
I have seen this for 2014 cases. get rejected for less than 100$ short in one year. 1500$ is large amount
Check 2014 parents threads for this info as what happen with people.

You have the freedom to choose what you want to do and I wish you all the best. Take care

Thanks! I guess I just have to wait for next year then! It's unfortunate that I take someone's else spot and short by 1200$ only in just 1 year.

Talk with accountant. See if u can reassess that year 1200$ short income .And pay more tax for the year back dated , due to income that you may not declare or forget to declare.
For example , you may be driving UBER during the weekends & fail to declare that income to CRA

While filling income form IMM5768 .Add updated assessed income also in the table where period of income is asked. No need to give 3 last years NOAs ( do not fill IMM5748) , instead just fill form that give full authory to cic to talk with cra about your income
lottery u got this year may not get for next 5 years. By the time CIC contact with CRA, u new updated income of that year is what CRA should have . Best of luck .

Suddenly find income from 3 years ago. Hopefully the individual declared all their income the first time and is unwilling to commit fraud now.
