Super Visa Income Requirement for a Family of 2 (2026)
To sponsor a Super Visa for a household of 2 people in 2026, the host must show a minimum income of $38,002 CAD. This is the Low Income Cut-Off plus 30% (LICO+30%) that IRCC requires for a family of 2. Since March 31, 2026, either of your two most recent tax years can qualify, and the visiting parent's or grandparent's income can be added to yours.

2026 minimum income for a family of 2
$38,002CAD / year
Who counts in a family of 2?
A family of 2 means the income must support 2 people in total: you, your spouse or common-law partner, your dependent children, and the parents or grandparents you are inviting — plus anyone else you already sponsor. A common case at this size is a single host inviting one parent.
How to prove you meet $38,002
The strongest proof is your CRA Notice of Assessment (line 15000) for the qualifying tax year. Employment letters, recent pay stubs, and T4 slips can support it. A co-signing spouse or common-law partner's income for the same year is added to yours, and since March 31, 2026 the visiting parent's or grandparent's own income can also be counted toward the $38,002 threshold.
