Evaluation of the Federal Business Immigration Program — Appendix F: Income Profile

The following table looks at the combination of the different source of income declared by individuals. The individual may draw its income from one source of income only (employment, self-employment or investment income), from the combination of two of the three sources considered (employment and self-employment income, employment and investment income or self-employment and investment income), or from all three sources of income considered (employment, self-employment and investment income). It is also possible that some individuals did not declare receiving any of the three types of income sources considered.
