Try the Income Eligibility Estimator (LICO)

To use this estimator, enter the total number of your household size, and where applicable, the monthly net income for you, your spouse/common-law partner dependant adults (18 years or older) and children (17 years or younger) living with you.

What is your family size? For example, if you are living with your spouse and have one child, your family size is 3.

What is the monthly net income for each family member living with you?

Net income is the income remaining after all taxes and other deductions are taken off, for example the balance left on your pay check.

This includes the monthly net income for you, your spouse/common-law partner and dependant adults (18 years or older) and children (17 years or younger) living with you. If there is no income for the family members or not applicable, enter 0.
