I am currently working with PostGrad work permit and my LMO is currently under processing, and my family is back in my country.
If this LMO comes out positive as expected, since I am the primary applicant can I include my family visa applications to enter Canada in my application for work permit in Canada OR they must apply from my country..
Your contributions will be appreciated.

when you say your family... do you mean wife and children? if so, the answer is yes. If you mean parents the answer is no.

It´s funny ..how do you define FAMILY.. In Finland, when they ask do you have family ( even though I was not married) I said yes and when they asked how many children..then I know it´s about ME not my parents.
In my home country family means my parents and bro-sis.But here ( I don´t know about Canada) it´s my wife and kids.

Well, in Canada your family means your wife and kids only...they do not consider your parents as your immediate family therefore they put them on the back seat. I know in some clutures parents are alawys immediate family members nomatter you are married, you have kids etc. But in Western culture it is different. Once you are married you are a different family and your parents have thier own family. Your parents are your immediate family onlyy when your are depending upon them, when you start making money, you will go independent, leve them alone at home, move with your friends or girl or boy friend and chill out....and let them live alone suffering and struggling for their survivor in the last stages of their life. VERY SAD!
Cant´s ay it is good or bad because every culture has its own norms and they are comfortable with what they are doing so i am not at all saying west is wrong and east is right on such issues. Good Luck!

interesting comment Mike. Absolutely all of the people I know live this undestanding of primary family (wife, husband, kids) and extended family (parents, siblings etc)
In many cases, parents want that independence from their children to live their own lives as they choose. In EVERY case, those children would NEVER think to allow their parents to struggle or suffer in their last stages of life.
On the other hand, I have seen families where parents rule until the day they die and that situation has caused nothing but heartache and sadness for children that would like their lives to be different than what is chosen for them.
There is no perfect idea of family in either scenario when selfish people are part of the equation.

May be in western culture parents want thier independence and want to leave thier kids but it is not common in eastern cultures. And no wonder if western parents want to live seperatly because this is what they see and learn from generations that is why i said that every culture has its own practices and as long as they are comfortable with it, we are no one to complaint about it. However, i have seen people suffering in nursing homes when their kids live in the same city and they do not care what is going on with their parents. And then same thing happens to them when their kids get independent....
There is no such thing as ruling until the day parents die, there is no such thing as RULING in this sweet relationship. That is called respect where due respect is given to parents for their position, knowledge and experiences of life and their advice in every walks of life is given importance. Lingo will change the whole concept of this beautiful bond which is called respect not rule. But you can never understand this because you are different. there are no nursing homes, old age houses, and dad care projects, because this is the responsibility of kids to look after their parents in the same manner they cared for their kids when they did not even know how to clean theirselves in the washroom. This concept needs very broad understanding of this realtion which does not exist in the west, i am sorry to say. However, if west is happy with what it is, why others should bother...not at all.!

there are no nursing homes? there is a 100% asian nursing home right down the street from me. Parents (particularly Mothers) are sponsored to Canada to act as slave child care providers and cooks for their families. Parents do not know a soul, don´t go out - THAT is sad.
Then there are the children that are obliged to marry someone they don´t love because father thinks it is the right thing to do... or kills the daughter because she loves a non-Muslim man?
Come on Mike, take your blinders off. It facinates me how you live in a society that you dislike so much. I call that being a hypocrite.

You need to control your temper because i can easily notice the hype....act like a good listener...now you have started a new discussion which is about religion. I was not discussing about the religion. And i do not hate the society where i live, i have clearly mentioned SEVERAL times that i personally have no problem with western culture as long as they are happy with it. But it seems to me that you have little problem in understanding and comprehending things easily. No children is oblidged to marry someone they do not like. In Islam you have to ask the woman and man both (in case of arranged marriage) if they are comfortable with the marrige or not, if they are not, that marraige can not take place. If Muslim woman is not allowed to marry a non-muslim man and same like in christianity marriages can not take place between cousins. So what is the big deal? Now you must be having a justification that why cousins can not get married with each other, why nuns can not get married but have boy friends, why a priest can not get married but molest a child....there are 100s of example i can quote, so please do not bring religion into this. At the same time i can also justify why a muslim woman can not get married with a non-muslim woman but i would not go for it because i know it would be a waste of time dicussing this. Secondly, i said there is no nursing home in east easpecially in the muslim world, i did not say there is no nursing home next to your house. Of course immigrants are adopting western culture and they are comfortable with it so they are going for it. Furthermore, if you like i can give you the exact nos. of killings done by christians and killings by muslims are not even 5% of those by christians. This is the era of media and western media is strong enough to spread the news about Islam because it has become the world´s fastest growing religion in the world. Imagine, the propegenda against this religion, wars and killing in muslim countries by western forces, still this religion is the fastest growing religion in the world and particualrly in north america. You can live with your bias, why would i care. I want you to take your blinders off as well because i consider you an hypcrite because you in the name of human rights shout a lot, but support the killing of innocent people in Iraq and Afghanistan and other parts of the world. How many millions of innocent people you guys have killed in Iraq and Afghanistan, do you have any idea. If one american or canadian soldier dies you make a documentry on it and you do not even care those innocent kids dying with B-2 bombartment, with hunger and thirst, people who have become disable for life. Mothers who lost their kids and kids have lost their parents. You take your blinders off because you hate muslims so much that you started genocide in bosnia and herzogovinia, you can have a muslim boy friend, you can sleep with him and enjoy his company but you will never feel them as human in reality. You take your blinders off because you donot even know what is the difference between religion and culture and you mix them up so easily and misguide people through media and pretend that you the the saviour of the world. Close your eyes and think what are you doing, who is destrying this world, you are the muslims. Come on Hpocrites!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LET ME EXPLAIN WESTERN CULTURE IN A BETTER WAY! ITS MEANINGFUL AND IT FITS RIGHT AND IT CAN EASILY TELL YOU THE CLEAR PICTURE:
One day a girl brings home her boyfriend and tells her father she wants to marry him. After talking to him for a while, he tells his daughter she can´t do it because he´s her half brother. The same problem happens again four more times! The girl starts to get pissed off. She goes to her mom and says, ´Mom... What have you been doing all your life? Dad´s been going around laying every maiden in the town and now I can´t marry any of the five guys I like because they have turned out to be my half brothers!!!´
Her mom replies, ´Don´t worry darling, you can marry any one of them you want, he isn´t really your dad.´
