Dear membres,
I am an Outbound FSW.

I am about to submit my documents post ITA. I already claimed 15 points for having a brother in Canada. The problem is that his PR card expired and it will take 3 to 4 months for renewal.

Can I send a copy of his expired card along with the receipt showing that he already applied for his new Residence card ?
(and I will also send my brother's recent utility bills and tax documents for proof of residency)

Has anyone encountered this issue before ?

I guess his CoPR should work!

Hello guys i am in the same situation?
What documents did you use as pr card alternative?

I sent an LOE with the expired PR Card and the receipt of paiment for renewal
I already passed my medicals and biometrics, and did not receive any request for additional documents, so I guess it worked fine.
hope this helps. good luck

-for sibling relationship proof, I sent my birth certificate and his + his passport
-for proof of adress : a recent bank statement and his taxes document (notice of assessement) although I think that one of these documents is enough since both of them show his actual adress. In my opinion, it is better to send the tax documents because they proove that your brother is paying his taxes and residing legally in canada.

outside of canada.
I think that as long as she is a resident (citizen or pr holder), u just need to provide proof of relationship and of adress.
I hope somebody with more knowledge in this forum answers your question.
