We applied on October 6 (GCKey)for our 2 year old daughter born outside of Canada. I’m a Canadian citizen and my husband is a foreign citizen with a valid TRV for Canada. We haven’t heard anything at all! Still waiting for any type of movement…

We applied from Turkey.

If you were a Canadian citizen when your child was born your child doesn’t qualify for a TRV. You must establish that they are a citizen and get their passport.

Yes, I applied for her Canadian Citizenship in December 2020 and still don’t have it… So since she doesn’t have her Canadian passport yet, the only way she can enter Canada with a Turkish passport is with a TRV. Everything we apply for is taking so long, it’s very discouraging.

You were right.

UPDATE:

We received a message from the embassy stating that anyone who may have a claim to Canadian Citizenship is not eligible for a Temporary Resident Visa. As a result, the TRV application will be withdrawn.

They also advised that I must first obtain a Canadian travel document such as a Passport, which requires an application for a document of proof of Canadian citizenship.

I already applied for the Canadian Citizenship Certificate more than a year ago and there is no movement on the application thus far.

I think you can get a temporary passport for your child while waiting for her proof of Canadian citizenship. I haven't gone through the process myself but I've seen others getting a 1 time entry passport in similar case.
