Parent Visitor visa Question (Why do you need a visa?)

Hello,

I am on a temp resident on a work permit and trying to apply for my parents TRV. I got stuck at the very first question and was hoping to get some clarity.

* Why do you need a visa? (required)

- To visit my spouse, common law partner, dependent child, parent, step-parent, guardian or tutor who is in Canada temporarily, such as an international student or temporary worker

- To visit my grandparent, grandchild, sibling, half-sibling, step-sibling or non-dependent child who is a Canadian citizen, person registered under Canada's Indian Act or permanent resident of Canada

- To visit other family who are not listed above or friends for less than 6 months



The closest and best option in my opinion is "To visit my spouse, common law partner, dependent child, parent, step-parent, guardian or tutor who is in Canada temporarily, such as an international student or temporary worker" but that too seems wrong because I am not a dependent child.

Can someone please help me with the best answer?

I am a PR holder and want to apply for Visitor visa for my parents and they will stay here for less than 6 months, which option to choose?

I was thinking of option 3 but was confused with wording " to visit other family", can someone suggest me please?

2. They are wanting to visit you…their non-dependant child.
