Dear Members
My uncle is a Canadian citizen and i am claiming 5 points for the adaptability but i am not sure what to show as a proof that he is my father's brother?? I have read the visa office(london) guide but they have mentioned very generic things and i am still confused what to show as a proof?

Thanks

1. You need your birth certificate, your fathers birth certificate and the uncle's birth certificate, which show the same mother or father. You need proof of his status in Canada and proof that he is living in Canada.

Hello,

If possible, Birth Certificates of your Uncle and Father, displaying the same parent .. otherwise ID cards and passports showing the same parent (waldiyat) will also do, one more thing, visa officers at times emphasize that the relative, whose points are being claimed should also be living in Canada !! you can do research on this for more factual info.

Thanks PMM for the reply
I asked my uncle but he has missed the birth certificate,therefore, will the secondary school certificate(having my grand father name),degree etc of my uncle and my father will also work?
and yes i have asked him for the passport photocopies but how am i suppose to show that he is currently living in Canada? by providing address?

As mentioned by smiler 11, and also debit / credit card statements mentioning purchases made in Canada, all the required proofs should only be under his ownership. They do not visit at all, might call to verify (happens rarely) but if the provided proof is concrete then they might not even bother.

A notarized letter of support from your relative in Canada including a photocopy of the front page of his Canadian Passport, your picture and your relative's pictures in addition to all mentioned above.
good luck!

Hi,

I have seen it somewhere indicating below :

If your close relative is a permanent resident of Canada: photocopy of his or her Record of Landing (IMM 1000), Confirmation of Permanent Residence or Permanent Resident Card.

That is the only documents they are asking ? what if I couldn's show his BC ? what the letter you mentioned should include?
