Hello all,

Hope you guys can get me an answer.

I am a permanent resident of Canada and I want to sponsor my orphan brother who is 17 years of age. As per eligibility requirement, I am good to sponsor him for PR for Canada. The only issue is he doesn't have a passport, and to get a new passport he needs to get legal guardian. He is living with my uncle and aunt, I wanted to know if I should go ahead and make my uncle aunt legal guardian for my brothers passport? Will it make any issues when I am submitting his application here for sponsorship?

Please advise on who can be made legal guardian to get him a passport?
