Unlike other categories, H&C even though you add your family or include them in the application, if you get approved to become PR, it wouldn't be the same for your family members and spouse etc..You will have to sponser them seperately again but because their informations are already with IRCC, the application will be faster than then 12 month waiting sponsorship period etc...So be ready to sponsor them if you get approved to become PR through H&C as their security and criminality will be approved with yours but they must be sponsered again. I went through that path and that's the not so good aspect about H&C aside the long time wait....It took me 21 month for mine to get approved after 11 years in canada and as a degree holder and but throughout my experience i got all visa's approved when i applied for more study permit to go to school again, open work permit then was a one time shop , employer specific work permits, TRV visa's...I worked hard and made money so i was using all my money for all these applications and processes....I hired a lawyer who didnt do anything for me back in 2017 so i have sued the law firm now....i want my money back and the law society of ontario is looking into it....They must vomit my money for me......Some of this consultants and lawyers for immigration purposes takes advantage over the clueless and ever since my eyes were opened i did everything for myself and gets approved even faster
