Piggybacking off sibling application?

Citizenship by Descent

Hello,

My family is of French Canadian descent (I’m gen 4, gen 5, and gen 6 depending on which line you trace through 🤣) and my sister is working on applying now. She’s so excited I discovered this thread because she’s making real progress in getting the documents together, and this has the potential to be living full time in Canada sooner than the marriage track she was planning on before (her fiance is Canadian). But even with so few generations, it’s a LOT to stay on top of

Here is my question: if my sister succeeds with getting citizenship by descent, will it be any easier for my mom, grandma, or self to apply? They will already have all of the documents on file. Is there any avenue to kind of tack my application onto my sister’s so I don’t have to get my own certified copies of all these things. Keeping track of all these items coming through the mail at staggered times seems like an ADHD nightmare I will not be able to handle, and I’m looking for an easier way if possible 😅
