Expert Answer

Tailor your approach to the purpose of your communication. Begin by specifying the embassy you're addressing, providing comprehensive contact details, and, if applicable, including relevant case information. State the subject of your letter explicitly and detail any specific requests you may have. This ensures clarity and facilitates efficient communication with the embassy.

If you are a citizen or permanent resident, you can complete the family or dependent visa applications as their sponsor. If you are not a citizen or permanent resident, you may be able to sponsor your dependents. However, adult family members would need to independently qualify for a visa based on their country of origin, background, and experience.
