The sponsor generally must show stable, regular and adequate means of subsistence, adequate housing, and health insurance covering the family member.
These conditions exist to confirm the family can be supported without becoming a burden on public funds. The income test looks for stable and sufficient resources, and the housing must be suitable for the size of the family.
Health insurance covering the joining family member is also required. The precise thresholds and how strictly they are applied can vary, and some sponsor categories, such as recognised refugees applying within a set time, may benefit from more favourable conditions.
