Hope someone can help me out here.

I'm uploading all my documents, and I'm confused since I can't exactly tell the documents they are expecting me to upload to prove that my sister is a Canadian Citizen.

There are in total 4 documents that they are asking me:

Proof of residency in Canada of sibling (I've got a bank statement, so no big confusion about this one)
Proof of sibling relationship (I've got my birth certificate and the birth certificate of my sister, so I think that covers this field)

The problem comes with these two, they seem pretty much the same to me:

Proof of PR/Citizenship of sibling
Family Member Proof of Status


I've got:
- My sister's passport
- Her driver's license
- Her certificate of Canadian Citizenship

The description provided in the page is exactly the same for the 4 documents, so that really doesn't help me at all to tell the difference between them.

Any idea what's the difference between those two fields and what should I upload in each one of them?

Hi greenboymx, just wondering was a bank statement enough for Proof of residency in Canada of sibling. Did you submit anything else for this section? Also did you get a statement from the bank or just download one from your internet banking account? Thanks

I don't think you need to go as far as providing a bank statement from your sibling. Water, electricity or heating bills are enough.

Hi there,

Going through the files I submitted, I see that I sent a pdf bank statement + her driving license. I honestly don't recall if I was asked to submit both or if I just did that because of being precautious; it worked anyway! if you have the chance to submit both things I would do so. The most important thing regarding this particular submission is to prove that your sibling indeed resides in Canada.

Thats good to hear and Congrats. Did you submit a one month bank statement or did you include more months?

For proof of PR/citizenship, only the passport of the sibling is enough? Or do I need to attach other documents too?
