Financial Ability
Employers must submit a copy of their latest Notice of Assessment from the CRA showing their financial ability to pay the live-in caregiver’s wage. In exceptional cases where the employer is not required to pay income tax in Canada, copies of the following can be submitted as proof of income: paystubs, bank statements, personal work contract or other official documents.
NOTE:
In the case there are 2 employers and the income of 1 employer is not sufficient to meet the financial ability to hire a live-in caregiver, the income from the second employer can be used to meet this requirement. However both employers must submit copies of their individual Notice of Assessment from CRA.
Human Resources and Skills Development Canada (HRSDC)/Service Canada will assess the employer’s financial ability by using the Low Income Cut-offs produced by Statistics Canada. Employers can perform their own calculations before submitting their application by using the Financial Ability Calculator available in:
