no it does not

If you keep your wife as the primary applicant then Yes you can..

There are 2 ways to have a brother-in-law:

- your spouse's brother
or
- your sibling's husband


In the first situation, he counts as a relative for CIC, regardless of who is the Principal Applicant and who is a dependent.

In the second situation, he does not count as a relative.

Hi

U will get big Zero points for relatives in Canada . So why bother so much ??

1. Except that you have to be eligible to apply for EE, and that means that you have to get 67 points on assessment. The relative in Canada, gives you 5 adaptability points.
