Hello I arrived in Canada in July and sought for an asylum at the airport as bisexual. In that same month I met a girl who is a Canadian , we got to know each other and have been in a relationship till now . My girlfriend is pregnant now . My question now is , is that going to help my asylum application in any way when the baby is born? We want to get married but i don’t have the financial capabilities for now . All forms of advice and help is welcomed. Thank you
A refugee got a Canadian pregnant

The child and your relationship don't help with the refugee claim. The success of the refugee claim is being able to prove the basis of your claim.
Assuming the relationship is serious, you can get married and your GF can sponsor you for PR through the spousal sponsorship program.
Having a child will not help your case at all. On the contrary, I think it may even have a negative effect since you took refuge as a bisexual and had children as soon as you arrived. Our opinions don't matter. Most importantly, you should consider that the judge will think about these things. The safest way is to get PR from your partner before the court.
In my opinion, being bisexual has nothing to do with your baby or your relationship. It is perfectly fine in Canada. However, if you lack the financial means, it might be better not to continue the pregnancy, provided it's not too late for your girlfriend to have a safe abortion. If your asylum case doesn't succeed in the near future, your girlfriend may end up raising the child on her own in Canada. Having a baby when you are not capable of responsibly caring for it, in my opinion, might be detrimental to your asylum case rather than helpful. I might wrong on this, though. I would suggest discussing your plans regarding the baby and your girlfriend's desire to get married with your lawyer.

I would say that if his girlfriend knew his status from the day they first met, then that was her choice as well. However, I don't agree with having the baby at the moment because it might lead to the child growing up without a father if his asylum case doesn't pass. Certainly, since he came to Canada to seek asylum, it's not an ideal place to raise his child in his home country. We're not even sure when his hearing day is. We don't even know if he can support his girlfriend during the pregnancy period, though
Would suggest continuing on with your asylum application. Your relationship has not been very long so if you got married and tried to get sponsored there could be concerns about the validity of relationship. If you have protected person status, have dated for much longer and have either lived together for a year or gotten married then you have the option of having your partner sponsor you for PR.
You could keep other opinion to yourself and focus on replying to a poster specific question, which the answer is "No, Having a baby will not improve chances of positive decision".
The child can only help once they turn 18 and legally sponsor you. Till then you have to complete the refugee claim or if you get married then maybe it might be different. Talk to a lawyer
I dont think there is other immigration program in Canada that a child can sponsor a parent for permanent resident, apart from the lottery PGP.
While I strongly disagree with you, I respect your right to express your opinion. In Canada, people have the freedom to express their opinions, even if you disagree with them. It’s essential to consider more than just his own needs. Children are highly valued in North America. Abortion is legal in Canada. It is one of the choices they also can consider. It is nothing matter if you like others’ opinions. It’s okay if you don’t agree with all of others’ opinions, but it’s important to learn to respect them instead of manipulating others’ voice.
