Dependent Child Sponsorship - 2021
- Thread starter bsureshmaran
- Start date
We have a 21 year old dependent that got pregnant while her application for PR is on process. She gave birth last March 2023 and we waited for the baby's birth certificate to declare that my daughter had a baby. But while waiting for the baby's birth certificate, we recieve a Passport Request Letter this July 13,2023. Any advice on what we have to do? We want the baby to declared before my daughter come to canada. Here is the timeline
applied in september 2021 Under dependent child sponsorship. (She is only 19 years old)
1st medical request May 30 2022
(got pregnant in july 2022, but she found out in september 2022)
boimetrics request May 25 2023
(2 months after she gave birth)
2nd medical request June 27 2023
passport request July 13 2023
Thank you in advance

I believe that the steps are that you will advise IRCC of the addition of a new dependent-of-dependent, revised forms where needed, etc. You may also need to provide additional like financial forms, do check.
A really important thing: depending on jurisdiction and the like, the other parent's rights basically must be renounced (permission to emigrate) or there for not to be any (which may be the case if father not on the birth certificate, but in some jurisdictions is either not possible or always a risk). It would help if you mention the country. Honestly - for the question of whether the father has rights to prevent emigration may need lawyers involved to establish the father has no or limited rights. Also note: neither you nor your daughter will basically ever be able to sponsor the father. (If this is a big issue - ask others and get lawyers).
Baby will need medical and the like. Yes, this will probably mean a delay. Main thing is to proceed quickly on your end so the daughter doesn't 'age out.' (Which should not be the case as long as the current file is kept alive, otherwise she'd have to apply for a new one possibly over age 21).
Sounds complex but hey - congrats on being a grandparent.

Its really sad that we have to wait all this long but nothing to do we just have to hang in there till they get to our applications.

Whichever of the parents is in compliance with the residency obligation should sponsor.

Just go through the forms. There is no outland/inland for infants - the procedure is technically 'outland' but makes no difference whether child in or outside Canada (basically).
