I hold a PR status here and eligible for a canadian citizenship. My sister runs a business back home, but her visa expired two years ago. The same goes for my brother who is a minor and is currently studying in school.

They both visited me when they had valid visas.

My father also had a visa and when they applied as a whole family but he is no more.

Would there be any issue in the reapply process for both my siblings?

They can both apply but are separate applications/accounts as they are not dependant of each other.
Thank you very much! Would you happen to know if there are any specific documents required for the minor, given that both of our parents are no longer with us?

He's 17 yrs old and no one has custody of him since it has not been needed anywhere back home.
Who has been caring for him? It may be very difficult for your brother to get a TRV because there will be concerns he will remain in Canada given he is now an orphan and there is no legal guardian. If you want to sponsors your brother because he is an orphan there is a process for that.

My sister is taking care of him but we never needed a legal custody of him. Yes, I am aware of that process but that takes a quite long processing time frame. That is why I was wondering if I could reapply his TRV.

And, once he turns 18, I am considering to apply a student visa for his further studies.
