Goverment is coming with new rule next year to change the required age from 19 to 21, for siblings to be considered dependant children. Although it helps but in case of many people, including me, there siblings be past the age of 21 by the time this rule takes effect. Immigration Canada is taking suggestions from people until November 28 inorder to make any ammendments to this rule. Hopefully they can revert it back to the original rule where a child was considered dependant even after age 21 as long as there was no gap in his/her education. Anyone in a similar situation please use the following email address to send your suggestions to Immigration canada and hopefully all our emails would help getting the amendment revised to incorporate the education factor.
