sponsoring married brother

[balut]

hi, i know these are repetitive questions. i just can't see the thread.

I am single, canadian citizen, has stable job, never married, no kids, and alone here in canada, parents are deceased, no known relatives in canada. Can I sponsor my older brother over 18 (married, with kids) to come to canada? if so in what category? just confused by the cic rules about family sponsoring. ThankS

You would apply under the lonely Canadian program.

You will need to meet the income requirement. The app is currently showing the 2017 LICO, so assuming your brother has 2 kids, you need an income of $52,583. If he has more than 2 kids, add about $7,000 more for each.
