That opinion sounds good but they look at all things.Relationships back home is 1 of the factors re; ties. I know above is not as much important but applicant has family in PK , wants to write it and they will look at it as parents is part of FAMILY too. Relationship is more important tie to come back home when a person is married and has a big family behind. Here is a copy+paste from a Lawyer's site:-
"Ties to their home country
The officer’s assessment of this factor is simple: the stronger the visitor’s ties to their home country, the more likely they are to return there when their visa expires. Visitors can describe these ties in the purpose of travel letter and also support them with other evidence:
  1. If the visitor’s entire family lives in their home country, then they can include letters from family members talking about the close relationship between the visitor and the family, making it less likely that the visitor will choose to abandon their family and stay in Canada.
  2. If the visitor has a job in their home country, they can include a letter from their employer confirming employment and the employer’s agreement to give the visitor the necessary time off for the trip to Canada.
  3. If the visitor owns property in their home country, they can include a copy of the deed to confirm ownership."
Anyways let us STOP this right here, as senior said it should be posted in a diff TRV thread.

Hi all
Advise needed here
In the schedule a background declaration form there's a question about
" have you ever had a serious disease or physical or mental disorder"

In my case
Many many years ago ( can't even remember how long )
I had a drug problem and was diagnosed with substance use disorder (SUD) and was on amitriptyline 10mg.
However many many years ago i completely stopped doing drugs I've been completely clean ever since and am no longer on amitriptyline 10mg.

My question here is that on the schedule a background declaration form
Should i answer no to that question?

Stubborn you don't have need to tell them about that disease, after all you are fine now and not taking drugs anymore.
So you can say I have no disease!

Dolly and Singleman here I need to explain some other things, as being an only child I have my property which worth more than 350 lacs Canadian Dollar. And I have my business here so there is no chance that I will not come back to my home country. I just want to study over there and then come back to my home country and build my own business to secure my future.
One more thing is my fiance lives here in Pakistan and I promised her that I will marry her after completing my studies, may be I will go to Canada after getting married, so here is more chances for me to come back and no chances that I will stay over there.
Please advice me one more thing what is more beneficial for me to apply for student visa or apply family sponsorship on behalf of my aunt?

Is you aunt married or has children? Are her parents alive? Then there is no family sponsorship. Your posts are very confusing. Are you trying to move, work, study in Canada?

Again, you need to post in the Visitor or International Student section of the forum. This section is for Canadian citizens/PRs sponsoring their family members for PR.

That is incorrect. The question is not "Do you have a disease or mental disorder NOW', it is " Have you EVER had a serious disease or physical or mental disorder". The answer to that is yes. The OP has had a mental disorder (drug addiction) which has been treated. Nevertheless, he has had a disorder so it must be declared.

It might be a good idea to gain some understanding of Canadian immigration before giving dodgy advice.

Any other suggestions will be welcomed
First, do not send me messages asking for advice. I gave you the answer in this thread already. You must be honest and answer the questions asked truthfully. Just because it is your opinion that your past medical history is not relevant, it is not IRCC's opinion.
