Sponsoring Spouse vs. Common Law - minimum income

[calypsomama]

Hello,

I am a Canadian citizen looking to sponsor my common law partner. Our daughter is a Canadian citizen as well.
I have understood that if we get officially married, there will be no minimum income requirement. Is this true?
His income is larger than mine.
Does us having a child make any difference regarding the minimum income requirement?

Thanks

There is no minimum income requirement regardless of whether you are married or common law.

Thanks for your prompt response! do you perhaps have any link/reference confirming that there is no minimum financial requirement?

Tanks for you time!

See the following requirements from the CIC web site (everything can be found there). No mention of minimum income:
