Urgent , number of sponsor information

[harneetk]

I am in dilemma of understanding the concept of sponsor and co-signer.
I want to sponsor my parents and my husband also wants to sponsor his parents.
We are already family of 3 and income of both of us is required to sponsor either way.
So my question is:
1. When my husband sponsors his parents(I being co-signer) , will family size be 5? I think yes
2. Afterwards when I sponsor my parents (my husband being co-signer) , what is the family size and what is the minimum income?

Any answer would be much appreciated.

Thanks

Are you looking to sponsor both of your parents in the same year or different years?

If in the same year, then you need to meet LICO for 7.

If your husband plans to sponsor his parents first, then LICO will be 5 for that application (assuming his parents have no dependents). If you then sponsor your parents in a later year, you'll need to meet LICO for 7.

Same year

Same year

Thank you so much

Same year

Then it's 7 for both applications (assuming the parents have no dependents).
