Clarification around the portal email reply

[sskmr87]

Greetings everyone,

I received the portal email confirmation yesterday under the CEC category. So, when I reply back to IRCC, do I need to include all the family members (or) just the accompanying members per the PR application? The below points are a bit confusing, as one indicates dependents(I hope it's an accompanying member), but the other one indicates family members.

Please assist and thanks in advance.

 As the principal applicant, you’ll act on behalf of your dependents. If you would prefer your dependents to have their own accounts, please indicate so in your reply to this email.
 In your reply to this email, copy and paste this template and fill in the information for yourself and for each member of your family. If you are not sure of the exact date(s) of your entries to Canada, you can provide your best estimate.

I would read it as dependents who are part of your PR application
