Proof of relative for adaptability

[German_Canadian]

Hi I have a question. In order to get points for adaptability I want to proof that I have relatives in Canada. I have an uncle in Edmonton and I have an ante in Toronto. During my working holiday year in Toronto I was living with my ante and I was registered under her addres where she still lives. Both are the siblings of my mother and they will give me all documents neccesary.

But there is one problem. Our background is from Ghana and besides the fact that we don't share the same last name regardless of marriage, we can't get any birth documents from Ghana stating that my uncle or my ante are related to my mother.

So are there any other ways of proving our relation? I have pictures for example of me my mother and my uncle which are like 23 years old and I also have enough pictures of my uncle, my ante and myself together from my time in Toronto. Would those pictures and all the Canadian documents of my uncle and ante be enough? Do you guys have any other idea? And can I mention both relatives or just one of them?

Thanks in advance.

No - pictures certainly won't be accepted as proof you are related. Is there any other proof that can be provided (other than birth documents) to demonstrate the relationship?

There is nothing I can think of. Specially because I don't have any documents. I mean what other than birth documents of my mom and my uncle or ante would proof the relation we have? I read somewhere that you have to become creative. I thought pictures would creative.

Has anymore an idea?

Simply tell them to get an affidavit, signed by a clergy man, neighbor or so stating u r related.

What exactly do you mean by that? What is this affidavit anyways and how do I get that? We can ask a neighbor or family friends to sign that and that's enough? Can you please explain what we should do in detail?
I'm getting a little nervous because without the proof of family in Canada I will only make 66 points.

Thanks a lot.

You have to come up with documents to prove that.

Back in Ghana, people must be using some certificate bearing their name, parent name, and date of birth. You can use those.

Yea I know that but like I said. There is no way for us to get birth documents from the 1950s from Ghana. I already said that.
So what about this affidavit? That would be an option but I'm not sure how to get that or what my uncle has to do.

I am not talking about birth certificates per se. I am saying back in Ghana, there must be some other document your folks must be using for various purposes. The documents that mention their name, parent name and date of birth. It could be a school certificate or anything else.

Okay, like I said documents from Ghana of any kind are not an option. People who where born in the 1950 or 1960s are not even sure if their birthday is correct.

Besides getting documents from Ghana. I mean come on. I'm surely not the only one who's relatives come from countries where documents where not that important at that time.

So please there must be another option which the cic would except.

An affidavit is worthless in your situation.
