I am preparing an application to sponsor my parents. I have a question about "adoptive" non-accompanying family members.
My mother was born in 1945, and her parents divorced soon after. The man whom I consider my grandfather married my grandmother just a few years later, and raised my mom since the time she was a toddler. He's been a father to her throughout her life, and a grandfather to me. However, I only found out recently that he never actually legally adopted my mother.
He's not planning on ever coming to Canada, but I was wondering if I should even list him as non-accompanying? Does he have any legal tie to me whatsoever?
Likewise, I assume I do need to include my biological grandfather (who has never really been a part of our lives). Is that right?
Thanks!!
