What means "non-accompanying"?Hi again!

¡Hi again!

In the IMM0008ENU Generic Application Form there is a question respect dependant: 11 a) Will accompany principal applicant to Canada? If I check "NO" means the dependant will NEVER go to Canada or is not going at this moment but in future will do. Iam asking this because in the website of CIC state if I identify a dependant as "non-accompanying", Immigration will not issue a visa.
My dependants will not accompanying me because they're wait until I settle down in Canada.

What do you think gays?

Non-accompanying means they are not emigrating with the principal applicant at this time. If you intend to sponsor your children following your own landing in Canada after you are settled, they are non-accompanying for the purposes of your application for a visa.

Thanks CharlieD10:

My sister is sponsoring me and my family (Wife and Daugther) but they are not coming at this time with me but will do later. So it does not matter if I check NOT ACCOMPNYING?. I am not going to sponsor them, it's my sister who is sponsoring us. Should I check ACCOMPANYING better?

If your wife and daughter are to get visas, you must put them as accompanying. It doesn't have anything to do with them traveling with you when you land, it has to do with them getting a visa at all. If they are supposed to get visas, they are accompanying. If they are not supposed to get visas when you get yours, they are non-accompanying.
