Hello,

Thank you for sharing your situation and question with us.

You can find some helpful and detailed information in our Settlement.Org How do I sponsor a spouse, common-law or conjugal partner, or dependent child living outside of Canada? article.

In terms of a specific income requirement in order to sponsor a spouse to Canada, there is no income requirement at all for spousal sponsorship applications.

Although there is no income requirement, you must not be receiving welfare benefits from any province (other than for disability) and you must not be in bankruptcy proceedings or an undischarged bankrupt.

You can also find some additional and very detailed, specific information in the Guide 3900 - Sponsorship of a spouse, common-law partner, conjugal partner or dependent child living outside Canada.

I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
