Hi,

I am currently on a work-permit (expires in Oct 2014) here in Toronto, Canada (have come from India). I had applied for my family's Temporary Resident Visa (TRV). The CIC sent an inadmissibility letter for my child. His IQ has been diagnosed at 60 which is much less than that required for his age 10. Hence under section 38 (1)C of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act he has been deemed inadmissible. It further says that this dependent can be expected to cause excessive health or social demands. It has provided the cost that will be incurred by the government (around $25,000 p.a , as per part of student school costs per year, to meet the special needs of such kids).

It further says, that before making a final decision, the applicant may provide additional documents relating to medical condition.

My child is a US PASSPORT Holder, 10 years of age, had a delayed speech/language development, and is right now in Grade 3 (he should be in Grade 4) and is an average kid at school. Ideally US PASSPORT holders do not need a Visa to enter Canada, however, they are still required to pass the medical requirements.

Can anybody help me as to what further information can be provided, in order to help me get admissibility for my child, or is this a gone case?

I don't have any option but to return to India, if my child does not get permission to enter Canada.

Any help is highly appreciated

Unless you can prove that the child doesn't need the social services and outline a plan, or that you will fund the costs, it is pretty well a lost cause.

Thanks for the reply.

Since the child has a US Passport, can he come and visit me as a tourist, for a few months

Guess, I need to apply for a visa for my wife and younger kid separately.
