i think brother in law doesnt count. only real brother or sister counts

brother-in-law is spouse real brother, and if spouse is part of application, then can applicant count those points?
may be seniors can share better answer.

you are 100% correct, but account statement of spouse is accepted as POF (in that case also spouse is not applicant).
Sometimes legal advice/information of seniors like PMM shows hope when all doors seems shut. I intend to seek their view.

Seems like it to me:

Relatives in Canada
You, or your accompanying spouse or common-law partner, have a relative (parent, grandparent, child, grandchild, child of a parent, sibling, child of a grandparent, aunt or uncle, or grandchild of a parent, niece or nephew) who is residing in Canada and is a Canadian citizen or permanent resident.

From http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/factor-adaptability.asp

Taken from the EG72010 manual on the CIC site

E. Relatives in Canada:
 You or your accompanying spouse or common-law partner has a relative, i.e., parent, grandparent, child, grandchild, child of a parent, (sibling), child of a grandparent, (aunt/uncle), or grandchild of a parent, (niece or nephew), who lives in Canada and is a Canadian citizen or permanent resident.

So your spouses brother would qualify for additional 5 points.

However it is possible that you are being assessed on the basis of your initial 2005 application when you did not have a relative in Canada. CIC rules do state that you need to have the required points at the time of initial application. So should your processing have started then you would have been rejected right away for lack of points. That could be the reason why it has been rejected now.

Having said that , you have nothing to lose to keep querying by email/fax your visa office about why your brother-in-law was not taken into consideration in your case and that he would have provided the required points.

cheers

I think I missed important point, applicant applied in 2005, their relative got PR in 2007 & case got rejected in 2010.
When application was filed that time, they most probably did not referenced their relative as PR holder (in 2005), so VO did not count those points.
Applicant might become eligible, if they appeal for reconsideration [this is wild guess]. Legal view of seniors might be helpful.

I think he has the right to add 5 points

simply language points may vary from initial application


if not
what is the importance of updating documents ?

 

[tertera]

i did not mention that i had send an e- mail to the visa office in 2 2008 telling them about my husband brother and the following was there reply (Yes. Please send evidence of relationship with relative, proof of his residence in Canada and a copy of his Canadian passport or PR card.

Regards,
Visa Section )

Did you get to the medical stage?
I think you need to send them an email as well as a letter quoting *You, or your accompanying spouse or common-law partner, have a relative (parent, grandparent, child, grandchild, child of a parent, sibling, child of a grandparent, aunt or uncle, or grandchild of a parent, niece or nephew) who is residing in Canada and is a Canadian citizen or permanent resident*, it has to be strongly worded though as i have read that they changed a decision in the past.If you need help, i don't mind helping you with constructing your email. You do not necessarily need a lawyer as they will charge you and it might be alot.

 

[Sisifo]

Did you send them the evidence as requested ??

If you still have the copy of that email , include that in your reply to CIC as it is proof that they have acknowledged that you can include it.

More importantly is your brother-in-law working in Canada ??

i think spouse didnt apply in this case

But, I think in form it is asked as DO YOU OR YOUR SPOUSE HAVE ANY RELATIVES IN CANADA? But, that member should be PR or Citizen.
