I am in the same boat. No need to appeal as it will be useless and will not be accepted. Just include him in your PR application as your dependent child.

Your American child hasn’t likely been persecuted so doesn’t have a case for asylum. If they were denied there is nothing to be withdrawn. You will have to include the, on your PR application but they will only get processed after you receive PR so around 2 years. They currently don’t have status in Canada.

The rule is if your child is a US citizen the refugee case didn’t apply so when your case was accept they told you that your child was not accepted it does matter because when you file your PR you will include all family members detail and PR card came of whole family including that child.
and yes you can only get that passport back when you got your PR card or eCOPR.

Thank you Laila, So simply a child is not Conventional Refugee and Removal Order is Active after failed refugee claim, However since both parents have status in Canada, Minor should be able to apply visitor records, Why would CBSA still hold the passport? Since you mention "The rule is...", Would you be able to share that rule?

I don’t have any written rule I know all this because I my roommate go through it, when you get your PR you can simply ask for the documents so they will give you all the document altogether in my friend case it was all family members passport including US and home country identity cards.
