Guys I am looking for your expertise on an issue. Following is some of the text from the PPR email:
STEP 1: STATUS CHANGE (If none of these conditions applies to you, you may proceed to STEP 2)
Has your family composition changed since our last correspondence?
• Have you married or divorced?
• Have you given birth or adopted a child?
• Do you intend to get married or divorced prior to becoming a permanent resident?
• Do you intend to give birth or adopt a child prior to becoming a permanent resident?
If any of these conditions apply, you must inform CPC-O immediately:
CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca
You will be asked to submit evidence such as a copy of the marriage, divorce, birth or adoption certificate or a letter advising when and where the marriage, divorce, birth or adoption is expected to take place. Any new spouse and/or children must be added to your application and be found admissible to Canada before your case is finalized. Failure to declare additional dependants such as a spouse or children before you become a permanent resident could result in the cancellation of your permanent resident visa. Once your file is closed, you would be required to submit a new application and pay new processing fees. Any new application would be assessed under the Act and Regulations in force at the time of its submission.
My wife and I are currently living in Toronto and our son was born in September. I had informed CIC at the time of his birth and they told that I didn't need to do anything to update file. They didn't even ask for his birth certificate.
The email mentioned if step one doesn't apply then send in your passport. Would it be ok if I just email a copy of my son's birth certificate and send out the passports. Or do I need to wait for another confirmation from the CIC. Please advice. Thanks
