What all documents are required as proof of sibling in Canada.
Is it compulsory to submit Birth certificate or Passport will be enough? and Are Bank statements also required along with Utility bills?
 
I didn't submit birth certificates, you just need ID proofs with your parent's names on them. My sister is a Canadian citizen so Canadian passports don't have parent's name on them so I guess I submitted her matriculation certificate or marriage certificate or both may be for proof of relationship.

And two proofs with her current address as proof of residency. That could be anything - bills, bank statements, license etc.

For proof of PR/Citizenship: For citizen ships its Canadian passport and Citizenship certificate and for PR its visa stamp on passport.

I strongly advise you provide your respective birth certificates for proof of same parents.
IDs with just identical last names won't cut it, as there are many people who share the same last name, but who cannot be considered siblings per IRCC's definition.

For PR you should upload both sides of PR card. If they haven't received their PR card, then you can show a signed (by border officer at time of landing) CoPR document

Oh yes indeed it is PR card, actually my sister is canandian citizen and brother is PR there and I know can claim points for only one but in my application I attached proofs for both of them. Yes it was indeed the PR CARD.

Hi, Indian Passports have both the parents name in the bio page, so will that also not be enough?

Hi Kanika, did you submit the birth certificates or was submitting passport enough?
