Hello Mark,
I stand
corrected on this, i don't think they actually asked for the street and
house number and all that, read it again please. All they asked for, is
where they are (Country, state).
It might help your case to just
include your immediate brothers and sisters only. A guy here yesterday,
told them he lived in Europe somewhere for a while, and when told by law
to declare a police cert from that country, since he was over 18 at the
time, he said he didn't register with the police. Talk about self
inflict.
If you have no ties with this people, my don't mention it. If
all goes well, your inland spousal application should take not more than
7 months the way things are at the moment.
You don't want to mention
things you can't follow up with documents. Please note am not telling
you to lie here, i don't condone that kind of behaviour.
Good luck
