Hello everyone - I'm sorry if this has been asked before but cannot find it in the thread
I am going through the checklist (IMM5533) for the in Canada Family Class application. Under 'supporting documents for sponsored persons (principal applicant and all family members)' section, it is asking for birth certificates for the applicant and all family members whether or not they are accompanying the applicant to Canada.
I am a Canadian citizen (the sponsor) and my husband is the principal applicant (applying for PR under sponsorship). We have no dependents or children and my husband is the only one applying to live in Canada.
Does the question mean he needs to provide birth certificates for his mother, father and siblings? even though they are not moving to Canada? What do they mean by family exactly? Like I mentioned, we have no children or dependents.
Clarification on this would be so much appreciated.
Thank you!
