IMM 5707 — Family Information

Family information form used in some IRCC programs; check which one your program requires.

The form is downloaded and submitted on the authority's website.

What this form is for

Describe your family members for the programs that require this version, as listed in your application checklist.

Documents to have ready

  • The documents listed in your program's document checklist
  • Certified translations of documents that are neither in English nor French, where required

Where to send it

Most applications are now made online through the IRCC portal, where this form is uploaded with your other documents. Follow your program's instruction guide.

Our tips

  • Open the form with Adobe Acrobat Reader: browsers and most viewers can't display it properly.
  • Use the form's “Validate” button before saving: it generates the barcodes read by IRCC.
  • Prepare your answers in advance (dates, addresses, history): that's where most mistakes happen.

Frequently asked questions

Why can't I fill this form directly here?
IRCC forms are dynamic (XFA) forms whose answers are encoded in barcodes. Filling them with another tool can invalidate them. We help you prepare your answers; the form itself is completed in Adobe Acrobat Reader or on the IRCC portal.
IMM 5645 or IMM 5707?
Both cover family information, but for different programs. Your program's document checklist says which one to provide.

The information on this page is general. If in doubt, the official source prevails.
