Send it in with the application? so basically a brother is not considered immediate family? How to make it essential? examples of reasons please
It's because the brother is already 25 and he will be considered as an extended family member of the original poster.
You are replying to an older post about travel authorization. Your brother is not your immediate family. He is your extended family. He needs a visitor visa and completion of webform to get written authorization.
Correct. Older post. I didn’t want to make a new one. This one serves the same purpose.
1)Do I apply for visitor visa first and wait for decision, then if approved apply for authorization? Or do both at the same time?
2) how about the statutory declaration IMM0006? Also after visa approval?
You can apply for both at the same time. It is through webform and on the website.

How about IMM0006, do I really need to submit with my TRV online? And what’s the reason to travel should be
? I think in my invitation letter I could say, just to visit me this summer.Im in a weird spot here, I am pregnant and my parents who are residing in Dubai with my younger brother (who is 9 years old only) want to travel to be with me to assist me. Now, the weirdest thing is, we applied for all three of them, and since my brother is considered extended family we submitted the required documentation for him as well for the written authorization - now all of them got their visas May 22nd 2021, however, my brother did not receive the written authorization from IRCC. I resend the request for him on 24th May, we still didn't receive any response. Today, once again I send them a remainder email.
Is it because he is minor and with parents he doesn't need it? I really don't know what to think since its not a positive or negative response - its no response from them. As since his visa was processed, that means they did look at the request, still don't know why they didn't give a authorization though.
Can anyone shed some light onto this? Im going out of mind with this and frankly losing patience with the IRCC. @Naturgrl

He is the only minor one in the family in Dubai?
Also, what documentation specific to him you sent? other than online TRV document.
Yes, my parents are clearly not minors but they can’t leave him behind as he is only 9 years old.
I send whatever they had asked - proof of my PR and relationship as well, IMM006 form notarized, plus even added in the quarantine plan and family representative form because clearly he is too young to represent himself. In the web form I gave them the reasons for exemption and travel dates as well.
Don’t send another webform as they clearly state not too. You will have to wait for a response. Responses can take weeks.
Did they all receive TRV approval? Did you fill out the online priority processing?
Yes they all received their TRV, which is what is weird - they even got their passports all back. But my brother did not receive the written authorization.
