I hope someone can shed light on me as I'm getting confused regarding the Family Members. My brother is a Citizen of Canada while my mother has PR status. There's a question Do you have a family member who is a Canadian citizen or permanent resident and is 18 years or older? Can I select Yes? As per clicking the family member link it doesn't mention siblings and parents. I will also declare my status as common law.
Are you accompanying a family member that has status in Canada, or has recently been approved to come to Canada? (required)\

What are you applying for? You can say yes for having a family member in Canada. You are not accompanying anyone unless going with a spouse or child under 22 who has status in Canada.

Thank you so much for answering my questions. One last thing regarding this question Do you depend on someone for financial support?
I'm not sure what is the best answer to this if I will depend everything to my Mother but at the same time, I also have the capability to support my own. Although, I will live in their house in Canada and the purpose of my travel is to visit them.

If you are over 22, you need to show your own funds for the length of your visit. if you show dependence on your mother then it shows that you don’t have the funds and may not leave Canada.

Yes, I am over 22 then it will be better to say No then show my proof of funds etc. Can I also mention in my Letter of Explanation / Intent that I will live in their house? any other cost to support in Canada aside from living in their house will be covered by me.

So are you applying together under the same account as common-law? You will have to prove common-law. Is she showing separate or joint bank accounts? Like you she is showing travel history, ties to home country, reasons to visit. She is visiting for tourism.
We're not applying together as she has an eTA already and I am not applicable to apply for one instead I will apply for the regular Tourist Visa. Would it be okay to add it to my explanation letter that my common-law partner has an ETA and she will come with me? Yes, we have proof we're common law like a joint bank account and biller on the same address.

The issue if you mention her in your explanation letter is that you would have no family ties in your home country. This is the most common reason for refusal.

if that's the case will it be better not to mention my common-law partner and instead make her my home ties in my country? As she wouldn't have any issues with going to Canada as she already has an eTA right? This means it will be better to stick w/ my original plan and If I will mention her in my letter make her my home ties. My concern is she just applied for her eTA last month did the IRCC will check her? I'm not sure what is the best path.
Thank you! If I got refused previously will it be better to include it in my letter of explanation? Although, It was a long time ago I think 5 years ago.
