Child born after applied for citizenship but before received

[Bambaleeeoo]

Good day to everyone,

Maybe someone can clarify it for me, if parents who applied for Canadian citizenship left Canada before actually receiving it, had a child born outside of Canada, then received their citizenship (flew back when needed for test and oath), will the child be somehow eligible for Canadian citizenship ?

Because on the moment of child birth, citizenship application was still not finalized, and actually approved after, what would be the way to apply for a citizenship for the child ?

Thank you to everyone who helped !

You will need to sponsor your child first as a PR once he lands in Canada and becomes PR and you are citizen then you can apply for your child citizenship under subsection 5(2).
