Hello there, please need you guys help. I just got my pr last August and when I saw my ecopr, it says I don't have dependent but I do declare my non accompanying Canadian citizen son who born and currently in Philippines. I do declare him in my application saying I have son but since I'm coming alone, I put him as non accompanying also he has his proof of Canadian citizenship certificate. I am wondering how could I get him from Philippines, he doesn't have Canadian passport yet only Philippines passport My ex and I had divorced and no contact with each other long time ago. I wanted my son to come here with me.
CANADIAN SON BORN OUTSIDE CANADA, PLEASE NEED ADVISE HOW TO BRING HIM HERE IN CANADA

I am the one who raised my son ever since so I guess i have the full custody, my ex and i got separated when i was 4 months pregnant and i went back home in Philippines, I don't have any contact with him..only with my former father in law..my son's grandfather
So you will very very likely need a order from a Philippine court granting you sole custody or permission from the father to take him fro the Philippines before you can sponsee him for his PR.
You need to get a Canadian passport for your son. Then he can travel to Canada. This is the only way.

For passport she will need court document stating she has sole custody and she doesn’t need signature from the dad .. she will need some kind of document stating she has no correspondence from the father , especially if the name in the birth certificate
thanks so much so i have to come to some sort of family court here in Canada to get sole custody or court from Philippines?

You can go to the family court and enquire and get the information you need. They can assist you with that section..
explain to them and they will tell you what to do
