Child's ID

[Inquizitive]

Hi Everyone,

As per guide, two child's IDs are required and one of them must have a photo. Examples are health insurance card or school records.
My child is a grade 1 student in Ontario now. OHIP card is photoless at this age and report/progress cards we have (from kindergarten and grade 1) don't mean any photos too.

What is implied to provide them with then?! Please help

Thank you

Sure she does, but they suggest a passport as ID for under school age children:

>For a child under school age, identification such as:
>a passport page containing his or her photo and personal details

We sent them the copy of the passport + PR cards as a proof of photo IDs.

Did you mention this in explanation letter or something?

Contact the school admin, they do have a photo ID with joined date to current. (if you request for citizenship purpose they know how to prepare with a photo) for us they did it in a day.

I had a similar case. You do not need to write a letter.
The given examples of the IDs are just examples, and they apply whether under or school aged. Just give the passport.

do we need to provide copies of Child Id if 1) they are under school age 2) already Canadian.
I have not found any section where they request Ids for Children.

I contacted the school admin and they issued me a couple of forms with my kids' photo on them.....one of them is called OSR
the school admin issue them on regular...so they know about it
other form is internal document
