Negative and Indirect adjectives

Hi I was wondering if anyone could tell me if I got this right? I had to put the correct indirect or negative adjective. The underlined part is what I put.
¿Tiene a alguno familiares en Canada?
Sí, tengo alguno familiares en Vancouver.

I'm sorry, but both of them are wrong. The underlined indefinite adjective is supposed to agree with its noun in both number and gender, and the word you used agrees in gender but not in number.

Okay so would it be algunos for both because it is plural?

Yes.

By the way, your first sentence doesn't require the personal 'a' after 'tener'.
