Principal applicant dependant.

Please I will like the opinion of experienced member on this question. My friend is applying for FSW2014 and his wife's sister(now 13 years old) has been living with them as a dependant since he got married. Can my friend possibly add his wife's sister as a dependant in the application form? Please note that my friends wife's parents are still alive but my friend&his wife has been responsible for her in everything.
I will appreciate your response.

Thank you.
No, u need to show legal adoption papers in order to show as a dependent.

I know one case from NDVO who recently gets his PR have done the same by adopting his brothers daughter just for the sake of Immigration.

RPRF can be paid at any time during the application period and it can be combined with initial CIO fee (which most of us didn't). There's no restriction on how & when it is to pay.
Exactly...and in response to my CSE, LVO replied to me that "although they have not requested the RPRF yet but I can still pay it any time"...

One more thing... Why LVO loves to complicate everything. All other visa offices (and even most if the LVO visa officers) follow the same process that they request RPRF with MR normally then why some VO don't follow this?? Is there no defined policy/process/SOP in CIC manuals about the same? If there is then why is not being followed by ALL? Why do they make things difficult for some applicants and not only that, it causes waste of time, money for courier and increases frustration ??? ::) :-\ :-X

Exactly, don't remember the name but some one from LVO only had submitted before to CIO with initial application.
Alush submitted RPRF long before MR to LVO.

He submitted RPRF Draft in Oct 2013 whereas he got MR in Apr 2014 to be precise.

Well, from the mouth of the visa officer during my interview. "RPRF can be paid at any time and it speed up the process and avoid un-necessary delay".
I am not expert but from what I came to know It is strongly advised to pay it NOW. after all it is refundable.
I second this.
VO mentioned same to me during interview, "to speed up the process he would send RPRF along with MR"
