My husband and I are PR and we want to sponsor our parents (3 in total) to get PR. We plan to co-sign each other's applications. My husband's income is close to 60000. I'm a PhD student, so most of my income comes from non-taxable scholarships ($30000). I wonder whether my scholarship can be counted as income in our application? If not, it's quite difficult for us to meet the threshold

Thank you!

No. Only taxable sources included in line 150 count for LICO.
