Proof of relation
I was wondering what kind of proof I need to provide that I am a relative
of a Canadian citizen. Would providing the name and address of that relative be sufficient? Thanks |
Re: Proof of relation

Re: Proof of relation
If your relative in Canada is married then i guess marriage
certificate will do the work for you as it has father name that matches your father name. In my case I have a married sister there in USA and I have mailed the copies of: - Her marriage certificate (our father name and our home town address on it) - Her secondary school certificate (that has our father name) - Her Canadian passport (to show that she is a citizen) - And her latest bank statement (that has CC transactions of Toronto to show her presence in Canada) "Steve Lai" <[email protected]> wrote in message news:<[email protected]>. .. > I was wondering what kind of proof I need to provide that I am a relative > of a Canadian citizen.

Re: Proof of relation
You relative can send you a signed affidavit(and notarized) stating
the relationship to you and identifying you. The affidavit should include his/her address. He/she can included a copy(doesn't hurt to get that notarized as well) of their passport. Then send all that in when you apply. I just did this! If you find outout that this doesn't work, please let me know by email.

Re: Proof of relation
"Signed affidavit" from claimed relative is worthless when it comes to
documenting having a relative in Canada in order to get extra points in Adaptability factor. Applicants must provide conclusive evidence proving the following: 1. Relation to claimed relative (parent, grandparent, aunt, uncle, sister, brother, niece, nephew, child or grandchild) through the set of birth certificates proving claimed relation; and 2. Fact that claimed relative is Canadian PR or citizen and lives permanently in Canada (copy of passport or landing papers is not enough) -- ../..

Re: Proof of relation
Hi,
Would copies of the original birth certificates, issued by the country of birth be ok? Do they have to be translated to english, notarized, or anything like that? Or just plain photocopies would do it? And, would a recent Bell telephone bill be an acceptable proof that the claimed relative lives in Canada? Thank you.

Re: Proof of relation
Nope - copy must be certified as true copy and have certified translation
attached. A single phone bill may not be conclusive enough. What about other utility bills, rental agreement, tax assessment, payroll stubs or other proof of employment, etc.? -- ../..

Re: Proof of relation
Hi again.
It's odd though. About having the birth certificate translated, the "Visa Office Specific Instructions" (PDF file found here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/guides/E37106.pdf) clearly states: <snip> Send certified photocopies of all documents, except the police certificates, which must be originals. If your documents are not in French or English, notarized translations should be submitted in addition to the certified copies. Exception: Birth, marriage, and other civil status documents, as well as educational certificates, do not require translations if they are written in Romanian using the Roman alphabet. <snip> Regarding the utility bills/tax assessment/proof of employment - there is no reference (in the same PDF) being made to any other documents besides the record of landing or a proof of canadian citizenship - e.g. citizenship card, canadian passport - in the paragraph where the proof of relationship is described: <snip> 5. PROOF OF RELATIONSHIP IN CANADA (IF APPLICABLE) Proof of relationship to any close relative in Canada, such as birth, marriage or adoption certificates and proof of that person's status in Canada; photocopy of the Record of Landing (IMM 1000) of your parent or proof of Canadian citizenship such as photocopy of pages of a Canadian passport or Canadian citizenship card. <snip> On the other hand, the Embassy's say in this matter, of verifying the relationship, is: <snip> You indicate in your message that you have a sibling who is a permanent resident or/or a citizen of Canada. The proof of relationship must be provided by means of: - notarized copies of the Romanian birth certificates for you and for your sibling and/and - notarized translations of these two certificates. <snip> Confusing, to say the least... By the way - by tax assessment, what exactly do you mean? (property tax assessment?). Also, would a letter of employment combined with a utility bill suffice for the purpose of proving the _in Canada_ aspect of the relationship? Thanks once again.

Re: Proof of relation
You didn't say in your post that you are a Romanian applying through
Bucharest - thus you got generic answer that applies to everybody. Some visa post allow submission of documents in language of the country they are located in, but not all and not always. It is safer to submit certified copies with their certified translations to avoid any delays. If your relative lives and works in Canada then s/he knows what tax assessment is - it is assessment mailed by Revenue Canada after annual tax return has been received from individual and assessed. If your relative is in Canada for less than a year and didn't file tax return yet then you may use your relative's utility bill with solid proof of employment (for example payroll stubs). Remember that you must provide conclusive proof and there are too many applicants trying to cheat through the process, so processing officer may not accept simple letter from employer (especially if it is a small, unknown company) as everyone can make such today on home computer. -- ../..
