Hi guys,
The date I submitted my refugee claim was when my eldest children was 21 years old who is 6 months away from his 22 years old birthday. But at that time he already having a full time job. And then I had positive hearing and submitted pr application after he turned over 22.
My question is will he still be eligible for being a dependent under this circumstance?
Thank you and looking forward to hearing from you!

Thank you for your reply!
I’ve been reading this website for a long time as it states two points as follows,
  • Check the age of your child at the time we or the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) received your refugee claim. This is the age we’ll use to check your child’s eligibility, no matter how old they are during processing.
  • Make sure your child meets the age limit and requirements in force at the time we received your application for permanent residence
  • The first point is apply to my case, but about the second point does that means the date of submit pr application? That’s where confuses me.

Did you mention your dependent name while submitting BOC.
