Family member submitting passport application

[liuna]

Hello,

Can a family member who is not a relative specified by the passport webpage, BUT does live in the same address as the applicant submit their application for them?

The webpage says that

Any relative living at your address can also submit an application on your behalf if they:

• are 16 years of age or older
• show identification that confirms where they live
  • if their identification doesn’t have an address, they will need to show other documentation to prove they live at the same address as you

But I am unclear if this relative still has to be one of the following:

• parent
• child
• parent's spouse or common-law partner
• child's spouse or common-law partner
• brother or sister
• half-brother or half-sister
• stepbrother or stepsister
• spouse or common-law partner
• relatives of your spouse or common-law partner, including their:
  • parent
  • child
  • parent's spouse or common-law partner
  • child's spouse or common-law partner
  • brother or sister
  • half-brother or half-sister
  • stepbrother or stepsister
