I have a question regarding Blood Relative residing in Canada who is either a PR holder or a Citizen. My wife's brother is a PR holder but I am the primary applicant. Can I still claim points under the relative option..??
Do you or your spouse or common law partner (if they will come with you to Canada) have at least one brother or sister living in Canada who is a citizen or permanent resident?
Note: to answer yes, the brother or sister must be:
18 years old or older
related to you or your partner by blood, marriage, common-law partnership or adoption
You can for sure claim the points for your spouse's brother being a PR, even if they are not accompanying you.
For documentation, they should be able to provide their PR card and some household invoice for electricity/telephone/gas/water etc. to prove that they are a PR and present resident of Canada.
While checking for "Eligibility" using the Eligibility tool to generate the code, i found that the question about a relative is asked only for the primary applicant and not while adding spouse details. As mentioned earlier, my wife's brother is a PR holder. Since I'm the primary applicant, can I go ahead and choose yes for relative option..?
