Hi,

I am preparing for my package. Hopefully, I will get my ITA in next draw.
My Question is, do I need to get the medical done for my Canadian born son as well?
He is Canadian Citizen and having Canadian Passport.

In my EE profile, I didn't provided any medical for a Canadian child, just upload their Canadian passport and birth certificate.

Medical is not required for Canadian born children.

Unless they aren't accompanying, you have to include them in the application, -- failure to do so might result in misrepresentation -- also in case of non-CEC/ without valid employment applicants, you have to show funds even to support your Canadian born children (assuming they are minors).

There is a glitch in express entry application system which requests RPR fee payment for Canadian born accompanying children --even after indicating that their place of birth is Canada and citizenship is Canadian.

I faced the same issue and I proceeded by paying the fee and explaining the same in a cover letter. I received PPR without any issues, mailed passports and waiting for a refund.
