Hello. On the IMM0008 form, question #3 asks how many family members including you are in this application? Should I include my two children also? They were born outside Canada, but have obtained their Canadian citizenship through my wife, their mother, who is also the Sponsor. We are all together and applying in-land with me as the Principal Applicant.

In other words, should I put 1 or 3?

Thanks in advance for any assistance!

It will be 1 as it's just you who's applying for PR.

I also have a question about this form. Specifically the part about dependents. Our dependent kids are already PR and citizen, do they need to be listed on this form? I'm thinking no but that seems too easy.

Based on the reply by Shehzad.P I listed no dependents as it's just me who is applying.

Why does it seem too easy? IMM0008 is for people applying for PR and they are not applying for PR.

The issue is not about who fills out the application form. My question was specifically about the section for dependents, where it says that you must declare all dependents whether they are accompanying or not. In my opinion the wording is ambiguous. I interpreted it in a certain way and wanted to hear from others.
