IRCC online website does not let me continue when I choose "visit - all other types" for my 2-year old child

Hi,

I am trying to apply for a temporary work permit with a LMIA. I want to submit an application for my family members and I could successfully add my partner to the application. When I try to add my 2-year old son, the question "Why is your family member visiting Canada?" comes and I chose "visit - other stay" (the alternatives were tourist visa, study visa, work permit). The system then says "Based on your answers your family member does not need a visa to transit or visit Canada" and does not let me continue with the application.

Does anybody know, how I can pursue? Do I need to remove my child from this application questionnaire and apply at some other point for him? I am really confused, as the system asks for my family members that I want to include and then I am not able to continue.

Thanks in advance!
Lisa
