Hello :)

I'm now working on family class sponsorship and I'm a bit confused.
My husband is Canadian (citizen) and he is sponsoring me (me only we have no child), and should I fill out the non-accompanying family members declaration?

thanks

If you mean the Additional Family Information form, then yes.

Thank you so much for reply :)

but I found this on part 3 information guides China [IMM 3903].

11. NON-ACCOMPANYING FAMILY MEMBERS DECLARATION
If you have family members who do not intend to emigrate to Canada with you, you must submit a
notarized statutory declaration with your application which:
• identifies these family members and their relationship to you;
• states your intention to proceed to Canada without them; and
• indicates whether or not you wish these persons to retain eligibility to be sponsored by you once
you have settled in Canada.
Note: Non-accompanying family members are still required to successfully meet immigration
medical and security standards at the same time as you. They will retain eligibility to be sponsored
by you as a member of the Family Class once you have settled in Canada for as long as they are
your:
• spouse,
• common-law partner, or
• dependent children
as defined in the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act and Regulations.
If you have non-accompanying family members who are either a spouse from whom you are legally
separated or your children who are not in your legal custody, it is not necessary for them to be
examined. However, if they are not examined at the time of your application, you will not be
able to sponsor them at any time in the future.





I don't get it. What do I need to do? Does it can be replace by the additional family information form? There is no formal form either.

:-( Help me please.

If you are being sponsored alone and you have no children, then there are no family members in your case that are non-accompanying. Extended family (other than spouse and dependent children) is not eligible to accompany you anyway. For your extended family, you just fill out a form called additional family information, see http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/IMM5406E.PDF
