Family Class Sponsorship

[omarmir9]

Hi there,
I am a Canadian Citizen and want to sponsor my real sister who is Pakistani national, divorced, having two kids under age 18. My parents are no more alive. I went through official Canadian Immigration site which reads as follows:
"Who you can sponsor
Depending on your circumstances, there are two options for who you can sponsor.

Option 1: orphaned close relatives
You can sponsor close relatives only if they meet all conditions. This means they must be:

• orphaned
• under 18
• without a:
  • spouse
  • conjugal partner
  • common-law partner
• related to you by blood or adoption, such as:
  • brothers or sisters
  • nephews or nieces
  • grandchildren

Option 2: other relative
You may sponsor one relative, related by blood or adoption, of any age if you meet all of the conditions, including:

• you don't have a living relative you could sponsor instead, such as a:
  • spouse
  • common-law partner
  • conjugal partner
  • son or daughter
  • parent
  • grandparent
  • brother or sister
  • uncle or aunt
  • nephew or niece
• you don’t have any of the above-named relatives who is:
  • a Canadian citizen
  • a permanent resident
  • registered Indian under the Indian Act

If the relative you want to sponsor has a spouse, partner, or dependent children who will come with them to Canada you must include them on the same sponsorship application."

I am not able to understand that under which option my sister falls. I would appreciate it very much if someone confirm that whether I can sponsor my sister or not?
Thanks,
Omar

Are you married/common law or do you have children? Any other brother/ sister or aunts or uncles or nephews/ nieces in Canada?

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I am married having two kids. I have a brother and two sisters already in Canada.

You wont be able to sponsor her as you already have family in Canada. She would need to immigrate through regular immigration channels.
