Hi,

Does siblings, mother can be a part of my immigration application if they are depending on me.

Is the definition of family/dependent is same across all States/territories?

Thanks

for mother definetly no. For sibling only if it would be minor and adopted by you (you being his / her sole guardian).

Would mention for siblings to be dependents they also need to be orphaned. Dependents are spouse and children.

Would anticipate it will likely be over a year before your mother would qualify for a supervisa and that is still a visitor permit. She will have to return home. Sponsorship of parents is not guaranteed and who knows what the program will look like 5 years from now.
