We are planning to hopefully start a family over the next year or two. My wife is not currently pregnant and we are approaching the medicals stage of our PR visa (currently just husband and wife, FSW1, with wife as PA).
We will hopefully complete our record of landing this summer, go back to the UK to sort out selling our house and tie up loose ends and hopefully move to Canada permanently Jan/Feb 2012. That's the current plan!
A few questions then relating to this:
1) What happens if my wife gets pregnant before we land? I assume we need to fill in the forms to add our child to our visa application / do the appropriate medicals etc and make sure we don't land until the baby is born?
2) If we move to Canada then have our child I think since we are both PRs our child would be a citizen anyway?
3) What happens if my wife were to get pregnant in between landing and moving to Canada? Are we then in a position where we need to decide to have the baby in Canada (and it is a Canadian citizen) or have the baby here and then sponsor it?
I kind of half understand this but just trying to future-proof our plans at this stage
