Hi everyone,
So here's my situation. My husband and I applied to sponsor my parents and my brother (dependent) and my husband's parents in June 2011. The family size is a total of 8.
We got approved as sponsors for both applications in 2015 which was great however, recently in October 2016 along with medical and police clearance requests they requested our 2015 Notices of Assessment and letter of employment but ONLY for my parents application. They didn't request income documents from us for my husband's parents. For my husband's dad, they requested fingerprints also.
The problem is that in 2013 I stopped working and became a homemaker when my son was born. So although my husband's income has increased and he's a cosigner on my parents application, if they use the current 2015 Federal income table (LICO +30%) then we will not meet the income requirements.
Question to anyone going through this is: Will they use the new 2015/2014 LICO+30% or just LICO to see if we qualify? Before I send the new documents, should I write a cover letter asking them to consider based on just LICO? Any advice would be great! Thanks!!
