Hi,
Could someone give me some good valuable advice please preferably a senior member of staff.
I have a uncle who lives in BC with his family who where all born there as Canadian citizens.
Can he sponsor me and my family i.e wife & two kids 9 year old and 4 year old under the Family Sponsership - Sponsor your other relatives?
I have assets in UK i.e money to support my family and can sell my home.
I'm a bit confused with the following statement:-
"You can sponsor:
brothers or sisters, nephews or nieces, granddaughters or grandsons who are orphaned, under 18 years of age and not married or in a common-law relationship
another relative of any age or relationship but only under specific conditions (see Note below)
accompanying relatives of the above (for example, spouse, partner and dependent children).
Note: You can sponsor one relative regardless of age or relationship only if you do not have a living spouse or common-law partner, conjugal partner, a son or daughter, parent, grandparent, sibling, uncle, aunt, nephew or niece who could be sponsored as a member of the family class, and you do not have any relative who is a Canadian citizen or a permanent resident or registered as an Indian under the Indian Act.

Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
