Hi,
Before applying for the PR, I had discussed the case with CIC in Canada, with multiple agents, as I wanted to be sure of the information they are providing is correct. They say, even if the child is in Canada on TRP they are considered under outside of Canada for PR application, so they need to forward the documents to the High Commission where the child holds Citizenship / Residency. So in our case it was India New Delhi.
I my application I had sent them a letter explaining the situation that the child is on TRP and is in Canada. When I received a letter from the Canadian High Commission New Delhi, I tried to call them but no luck as the agents back in India are not aware about the process and they dont have access to the system to check this. So I had sent them an email enquiry and then I also send them a written letter with all the photocopies showing that the child is in Canada on TRP. I did not hear anything back from them.
After few months when I did not receive any reply from New Delhi, I called up CIC in Canada and explained them the letter which I have received from New Delhi, All the CIC agents in Canada to whom I have spoken, they say its just a general letter which they sent out to all, If anything applies to you, you need to do the needful. Like in the letter they have asked from 3 things.
1. Right of Landing Fee
2. Police Clearance
3. Original Passport Submission to New Delhi
Above 1 and 2 does not apply as the child is just 2 years of age and it is mentioned in their Guide. For 3. I assume it is a general letter so thats the reason it must have been there. On CIC website it says the below mentioned
To stay in Canada as a permanent resident, you must leave the country and apply from outside Canada, except in the special cases listed below. To become a permanent resident, you must meet Canada's immigration requirements.
You can apply to become a permanent resident from inside Canada if you:
are a refugee or a protected person,
are a spouse or common-law partner of a Canadian citizen or permanent resident,
are a live-in caregiver,
hold a valid temporary residence permit or
are applying under the Canadian Experience Class.
I wanted to check on this Forum if any one has their child on TRP in Canada what have they done. And what communication they have received from New Delhi.
Also I visited New Comers Center and they also do help in the Sponsorship and PR application. When i did speak to them they say the process what I have done is correct.
