I have a question re family size. I'm single and only child of my parents. If I want to apply of parents sponsorship for my mom(currently I won't apply it for my dad). Does the family size is 2 (my mom and me) or 3 (my parents and me)?

The reason I am asking this question is I want to apply immigration for my parents in Jan 2017. I assume I need to follow the minimum income of 2013,2014,2015. My income satisfies for 3 persons in both 2014 and 2015 but only 2 persons in 2013. So should I wait for another year to apply for both of my parents or I can go ahead apply for my mom this year and go through the same procedure for my dad next year?

Thank you very much

Your family size is 3. You have to include your father in the LICO calculation even if you aren't sponsoring him.

You will need to wait until 2018.
