I can answer just the last one, you have to wait till May for your siblings PR. With sibling PR, you will get additional points. At this time, your brother's status cannot help you to get additional CRS points. |

Hi Manav, I was also in same situation, In fact I didn't even have the birth certificate, so I attached DNA report. I asked this question on twitter also and IRCC confirmed that I can use this. I would suggest you too confirm the same. Once you get ITA explain your situation transparently with the twitter reply in LOE. I am providing reply on my tweet.

@jassisidhu, check IRCC response on my tweet, you can caim sibling points for your blood related sibling even if sibling has been adopted by someone.You have Dob, I didn't have even DOB , so I attached DNA report from IRCC approved lab and they didn't ask any other document. I also provided all the details and link for tweet in LOE. IN your case DOB should suffice , provide all details transparently in LOE.
Tell your consultant and I am here in Canada because of these 15 points only. |
