Death of Principal Applicant

[nimi]

Hello All,

Just to get your opinion on this............There is someone that I know who is a principal applicant for Skilled Worker Immigration, but is deceased now. However, the medical has being done along with the family before the death. The family is still very interested and hopeful in moving to Canada.
What are your thoughts about this? Will the CHC will not raise any addittional issues with regards to this?
What are your thoughts about this.

Please respond.

it clearly states the primary applicant must be there for the landing, although dependents can follow at a later date the primary applicant must have arrived before them

The spouse of the Principal applicant can send all the other papers requested with the medicals, like PCC, financial statement, photographs etc., and send it along with a letter stating the facts. I am sure the CIC will consider the case. It is very tragic. My deepest sympathy to the unlucky family.
ALL THE BEST !
