Subject: questions on applying PR for brother
  I want to sponsor my brother to obtain Canadian PR. I read on the cic website that, I quote below,:

/You can sponsor relatives or family members from abroad if they are:
your brothers, sisters, nephews, nieces or grandchildren who are orphans; under the age of 18 and not married or in a common-law relationship./

Does this mean that I can sponsor my brother only if my brother satisfies ANY ONE of the following criteria:

1. being an orphan, or
2. being under 18 years of age, or
3. not married, or
4. not in a common-law relationship.

Am I right about this cic statement? Also, what should I and my brother do in order to have my brother´s case processed inside Canada? Like everyone else, we just hope to get this done a little faster if possible. Thank you for your advice.

You can not really sponsor your brother unless you meet the requirements of Overseas Processing Manual OP2 section 5.24

Your brother will receive 5 additional points for having you as a family member if he is applying as a SW, PNP or Business Applicant. If your brother is (IN) Canada the only possible application is a H&C application based on IP5 manuals.
