Family(sibling) information missed while filling in 2004

[Pintu786]

Hi,

a) I am a citizen of Canada since 2005. I have five brother and one sister.
While filling my immigration I dont think I have filled my family sibling information in the application because i did not remember the date of birth that time and made N/A.
I thought later i can update.
========================================
b)
In December my younger brother 22 year old he is applying for Student Visa for Jan2013 session in Niagara college. In his form there is section to fill his sibling and address.
he is filling "my name" and address in "Ontario. that mean embassy will know claiming his brother in Ontario ...although I am not sponsoring him and managing all expense with bank load, IELTS etc.

c) Question is Is there impact on his Student visa since I have not filled his name in family tree?
d) if yes , please advise the steps to avoid that ?

e) how do i correct/update family information for further (form#)?

f) In my case what do you suggest would be the best advise?

Thank,

Welcome to the forum!

That was a LONG time ago, AND you've been citizen for 7 seven years now. Just let him apply with your name, address on the application as if nothing is wrong. If it comes up later, well then it was an oversight. I wouldn't worry about it.

He could always just write an explanation on how your relationship has changed. In 2010 my husband applied for a TRV and while we listed his half-siblings, we got their birthdays wrong. When he applied for another trv in 2012 he was having a lot more contact with them and so was then able to ask them their birthdays directly. We simply wrote an explanation on a separate sheet of paper explaining what had happened.

However, yours has a lot of time difference between them, so it might be better to go ahead as truesmile suggested and just have your brother fill it out with your name and info as if nothing is wrong... I guess it's your and his call, however, with CIC it's usually good policy to air any baggage or miscommunications upfront because if they find out after the fact, it can sometimes look bad.
