family sponsorship and live-in caregiver...

[cherryblossoms]

Hello, my sister was granted her PR recently under live-in caregiver program, she had a daughter listed as her dependent child.
Her daughter has a 1yr old baby now and have a common-law partner. My question is, will she still be consider as dependent child?

They been asked to submit her passport and her baby's passport. Will this mean that they been approved?

Some say's that Live-in caregiver dependent application is different from family class sponsorship, if this is true... are the requirements for being dependents are the same or not?... I am looking for an answer in which I don't know if I ask the right question...

We are hoping for positive outcome on their application.. Thank you...

Dependent rules are the same for all immigration classes.

If your sister's daughter has a common law partner then she is no longer a dependent. I hope she has declared that she has a common law partner. If she hasn't, this will cause all sorts of problems for her down the road.

yes, she did declare her common law partner and their child, now they been told to submit the baby's passport too but not the common-law partner.
