Are you taking your baby along with you in Aug? Is it soft landing that you are planning?
I'll be moving permanently to Canada on Aug. with my wife and a 6 months (almost) new born
YES I know it's a big challenge!
Great , my passports gave gone for stamping. I have 2 month old baby.. planning to land in september and come back. How about job.. have you secured any job or are going to try after going there?I'll be moving permanently to Canada on Aug. with my wife and a 6 months (almost) new born

Hi. I am in a similar situation. My work permit (temporary residence ) application along with my wife got approved and we have Beena sked to submit our passports to VFS. But I have raised a query in IRCC for adding the baby,I had attached the neither certificate also but they haven't responded.
Regarding Form IMM 5406, I understand that both you and your spouse had to fill out the form, ie two copies?
When the dependent spouse filled out her copy of the form, did she enter herself as the principal applicant under section A of the form?
This form is confusing.
Hello Moonpat,
Trust I need to inform CIC about new born baby by filling up their web form, right? Just to confirm, the one available at http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/contacts/web-form.asp
Can you please confirm?
We added our newborn and did his medical too. We have been doing our process through attorneys. We submitted the medical for our baby on Oct 23. How soon do you think we would hear back from IRCC? (We were previously asked to send our passports but we waited until the baby was born to add him).
Hi need urgent help. I had sponsored my wife in Oct 2019 however the application is still pending owing to Covid, meanwhile our son was born. I want to add him to application. Have sent mail via Webform to IRCC 3 times however they seem to be not reading any email and simply sending a generic reply saying "your application is under process".
Finally today I have received the following email from them

Thank you for contacting Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
When you have a permanent residence application in process, a family member could be added at a later date, even if they were listed as a non-accompanying dependant in the initial application.
To add a person to your application, we invite you to complete the following forms and mail them to the Case Processing Centre in Edmonton, Alberta:
Now I have following 2 confusions:
1. Everywhere people have mentioned on forums that they submitted their childs application via webform, whereas the email I received from IRCC talks about sending documents by physical mail. I hope the email IRCC has sent me is for adding a newborn to application is correct. OR should I send documents online.
2. When filling out IMM0008 I have to give Primary applicants detail again and then add my son as dependent in application? OR simply fill IMM0008 using my newborn's details.
Any help is appreciated,
