Obstacles in bid to hire Filipino maid

I AM a retiree in dire need of a maid. To be eligible to hire a Filipino maid, the Immigration Department requires an annual income of at least RM60,000 to be stated in the tax return form.

In 2017, the income on my tax return was RM43,000, which is clearly insufficient to meet this requirement. However, I have other sources of income which do not need to be stated in the tax return form. I get more than RM100,000 in tax-exempt dividend income.
