identity documents of family members?

[gozer]

The Appendix A checklist for the immigrant being sponsored says to include photocopies of citizenship certificates for any family members who are Canadian citizens... On my Sponsored Spouse Questionnaire question 8, I listed a handful of distant relatives, all Great Aunts and Great Uncles.  CIC doesn't expect me to hunt these people down and beg them for photocopies of their identity cards?

Did they mean immediate family members?

Should I have never listed such distant relatives on the questionnaire?

thanks for any advice.

No, they mean your spouse and any children.

That's great to hear.  Then should I keep those relatives I listed on the questionnaire?
