Where it says "Have you, or if you are the principal applicant, any of your family members listed in your application for permanent residence in Canada ever..." who are they referring to? Is it the IRCC definition of "Family Members" which includes only spouse and children? Is it only people who are included in the "General Application Form for Canada?" Does it include people who would be in the "Additional Family Information?"

Let me know. Thanks!

Family members refers to people on your application - yourself, spouse, other dependants. If any of the latter are Canadians or permanent residences they are not included when you consider your answer.
