Do I include time on parental leave in my employment history for sponsoring my parents?
When filling out your financial evaluation form (IMM5768), you need to fill out your employment history. Since you’re still employed during parental leave, you can include that time in the employment period for that employer (question 14).
You should list your total income for the entire employment period, not just your annual income.
