Minimum funds required for family of 3 in OINP

[zaksam777]

Hi all,

I have a family of three including myself. So according to the minimum funds requirement I need at least $18,617. So if I have exactly this amount or let's say a little more like $19,000, would that be okay?

Family Members Funds Required
(in Canadian dollars)
1 $12,164
2 $15,143
3 $18,617
4 $22,603
5 $25,636
6 $28,913
7 or more $32,191

$18,617 or any amount more than this is fine.

Okay thank you varun2015. But while checking the eligibility through the form which issues you the reference number before creating EE profile why did it show slab of $18,617 - $22,603 for 3 to select? Little confused.
I had a EE profile in which I had previously shown only 1 family member. But when I updated it to 3 family members and I changed the funds amount to $19000, it made my profile ineligible. Was there something wrong?

Thanks.

No slab shown, you need to put the amount as a free text.

Oh I'm talking about when you get a reference number and find your eligibility through that form.
