Back story:
My brother and his wife is planning to apply for PR through spousal sponsorship. My sister-in-law is a Permanent resident of Canada. She is not yet a citizen. She is going to apply for my brother.
While looking at the checklist:
9. Original of completed Schedule A - Background/Declaration (IMM 5669) - for the sponsored person and each family member 18 years of age or over, signed by the person concerned.
11. Original of completed Additional Family Information (IMM 5406) - for the sponsored person and each family member of 18 years of age or over, singed by the person concerned.
26. Originals of Police certificates and clearances - As per documents list provided in the Immigrant's guide.
Immigrants guide: Original police certificates or clearances from each country in which you and every one in your family aged 18 years or over have resided six months or more since reaching 18 years of age in the last 10 years.
Also the guide is asking for medical checks, photos - for "each family member".
My brother has to fill these required forms/documents of course.
But question is do rest of the family (mother, father, myself) has to get police certificate, medical checkups, photos too??
Or when they say "each family member" - they mean the people who are applying for PR like dependents???
I am Confused because, it is not making any sense to make the whole family go through security checks, when only 1 person is applying for PR.
