Financial Evaluation for Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship [IMM 5768] is the form that IRCC uses to assess the total number of people you must account for when determining the income that you must have in order to sponsor. IRCC will use the calculation that you enter into Box 7 of IMM 5768 as a starting point when calculating your family size.

However, this calculation is not determinative and IRCC will also confirm the calculation in light of the detailed family information in your application. The number you enter into Box 7 only captures your current family size, and does not necessarily reflect the size of your family during the 3 tax years before your application date, which is relevant for the calculation of your income requirements. If your family size changed during or since those 3 years, it could affect the amount of income you need for each of the 3 years. IRCC may also calculate a different family size for specific years based on the detailed family information you provide in your sponsorship application.

If you check “Yes,” type your SIN and electronically sign and date the statement to give IRCC consent to collect your SIN to ask for your income tax information from the CRA for the 3 years immediately before the date of the application. Your tax information will be used to determine if you meet the income requirements to sponsor your parent(s) or grandparent(s).

If you check “No,” you must also complete the appropriate form, Income Sources for the Sponsorship of Parents and Grandparents [IMM 5748] (opens in a new tab) and provide the supporting documents in Part B of the Document Checklist. Upload this form to your online application under “Additional application forms.”
