Hello.

Can i include my father and mother into application for permanent residence. they are not accompanying with me.

What does family member means ? ( your father/mother or just spouse)
In the Generic Form IMM0008:
"You must list all family members in your application for permanent residence, whether they are accompanying you to Canada or not. You must also provide details on family members whose location is unknown (including those missing or presumed dead). If you don’t, you will not be able to sponsor family members at a later date if they are not listed on your application."

As far as I know, u cannot include ur parents in the PR application. Dependents may include ur spouse and kids. But in the form u have to include ur parents/sibling/spouse/kids info.

In IMM0008 generic form you need to provide information about your spouse and children.

The parent's information has to be entered in IMM5406 & IMM5669 forms. These set of forms have to be filled by both you and your spouse and you need to enter information about your respective parents and siblings.

You cannot include your parents while applying for the PR.
