Hello. Quick one please and I will appreciate your response on this.
I got an ADR request to submit a new IMM 008 form. This is because I added my stepson in my previous application but I did not add is information on the previous form I filled because he I felt since he wasn’t accompanying, there was no need. My spouse had this child out of wedlock so the boy stays with his mum. The issue now is there is a space for my spouse information where they asked if he has had a previous marriage or a common law relationship. Do you think I should include my stepson mother’s name in this space or leave it blank? And what is the implication of this.
They were never in a defined relationship because it was a on and off kind of thing and they have both gone their separate ways except that my husband send monthly upkeep to his son and pays his school fees.

Important: Hey guys I am in a bad condition. My passport was stamped and delivered to my St. John’s, NL address. I had moved to Toronto last month but had my previous ups mailbox address. It was safely delivered to it. But here is when the problem begins, I know I should have travelled and collected it in person but now it’s late, please help and suggest.
So I requested the ups store guy in St. John’s to send my passport and 2 other mails through XpressPost to my Toronto ups store address. There’s only 1 update since March 9th of item being processed at St. John’s, NL and nothing after that. Just stuck “in transit”. My previous packages were delivered in less than a day. But this one has not even been scanned at destination facility yet. I am fearing the worst that they lost my passport and my other 2 mails including 1 cra mail. What to do? I don’t have a job here, don’t have a residential address, I am super stressed.
Please help me what to do, how longer I can wait? Is it lost for real? I am repenting not travelling and collecting it in person. Please tell me the procedure step by step to request a new Indian passport and timeline for it. I needed to go home asap. Would they mail the new passport to residential address? Can’t they mail it to my ups mailbox in Toronto? I am still in Airbnb here

I would first request that UPS put a trace on your mail. Sorry, I don’t know anything about replacing a passport from India but I would ask the Consulate General of India (in Toronto) for assistance and/ or at least start by following this message posted on their website:
“For any queries related to Visa, Passport, OCI, Surrender Certificate and Police Clearance Certificate, please call BLS helpline at +1 289 498 1320. In case of death of immediate family members, for visa/passport services please call/message/WhatsApp at +1 647 6684108 (This number is available after office hours only).” Best wishes!
Include the fact that your spouse has a son and a letter of explanation that the son’s mother was not in a common law relationship or marriage with him. And, he can ask IRCC in the letter if they require any further details on the son’s mother. He does not want to be accused of misrepresentation now or in the future if he ever decides to sponsor his son to come to Canada.
@CherAmie could you provide some thoughts about my situation? I have an OWP through PGWP that expires in Aug 2024. My son’s passport will expire in April 2023, his TRV also expire in April 2023. I updated his passport and IRCC request it to add to my application.
Now my problem is: should I renew his visa? If yes, under my PGWP or under TR2PR?
thank you for your help XOXO

I am holding PGWP and yes I applied under TR to PR IG English stream alone then I added my spouse in december 2021 by a webform. Aor in 21 March, 2022 and everything is passed on file from september 02, 2022. then they requested my current status in canada on january 04,2023 and I uploaded the document same day. but dint get the received email or reviewing my document email yet. I called IRCC three four times but status is still the same Everything passed and received the document but the officer dint review it.
so continue waiting…
Is your son under the age of 18 (a minor) or under the age of 22 (and still dependent on you) and what is his current TRV? Visitor or Student? And, it sounds like he is in Canada.
Given your TR to PR timeline, there is a possibility that you will get PR soon but you shouldn't count on that alone. If he is a minor & visitor, I would simply ask for a visitors' extension adding a letter of explanation that you have valid status under a PGWP and have applied for PR under the TR to PR Pathway, which your son is also a part of as your dependent child. At the very least, you will have submitted his visitors' extension application in before the current one expires, keeping your son in 'maintained' status while IRCC is processing the TRV and your PR. I'm sorry that I don't have a definitive answer but I would also call the IRCC call centre and ask for clear direction (see if they confirm what I suggest), and then decide on next steps. (I'm familiar with applying for an OWP under TR to PR but not familiar with extending children's TRVs.) Best wishes.

Temporary resident extensions for minors
This section contains policy, procedures and guidance used by IRCC staff. It is posted on the department’s website as a courtesy to stakeholders.
Minor children who are applying for an extension of temporary residence in Canada, even when studying without a permit [A30(2)] must satisfy the officer that they intend to reside only temporarily in Canada. (IGNORE THIS COMMENT -- YOUR LETTER OF EXPLANATION SHOULD CLARIFY YOUR SON'S SITUATION.)
Children of parents who are visitors in Canada require a study permit to engage in studies in Canada.
Children of workers or students (or persons without status) may study without a permit, but must maintain their temporary resident status. Officers should grant this status for the same validity period as their parents' status by issuing a vistor record authorizing entry [A29].
A child who held a study permit on entry should be encouraged to apply to renew the study permit in Canada, when the time comes. Once the child is in Canada, they do not legally require a study permit, but they may find it easier to obtain a new TRV and/or study permit in the event that they leave and then seek re-entry into Canada. This is because, while temporary resident status expires automatically upon leaving Canada, a valid study permit indicates that permission to study in Canada still exists (upon the reauthorization of TR status). It is evidence that an officer was satisfied that the child met the requirements of a temporary resident.
