rhcohen2014 said:here is the verbage from the cic application:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/sponsor/spouse-apply-how.asp
If your spouse or partner lives with you in Canada, use the Application for Permanent Residence in Canada—Spouse or Common-Law Partner. Note: if a child of your spouse or partner is also living with you in Canada, they may be included on the application if they meet the definition of dependent child.
OR,
If your spouse, partner or dependent child lives outside Canada, use the Application to Sponsor a Member of the Family Class.
Just to follow-up with what rhcohen2014 has provided you with:kutchiputchi said:What where is that written...?
It's not the opposite, it's the same. The dependent child is not being included in a spousal sponsorship, so it cannot be sponsored inland.kutchiputchi said:VO=Visa Office?
Rcohen posted: " a dependant child can only be included on an inland application if they are being added to a spousal sponsorship. otherwise, the only way to sponsor a dependant child is from outside of canada"
So it's opposite then what other said that it can be done ONLY outland..

Where does it says? couldn't find this on cic websiteMilesAway said:You could try to get a visa for the baby, but those are often refused, so if that's the case, then yes, you would have to be in Canada to sponsor while your baby remains in your home country.
Unless you are from a visa exempt country, your child will need a visa to enter Canada. The chances of child getting TRV is very very small considering child will have stronger ties to Canada and not to your country. So without a visa for your child, the child cannot enter Canada, thus must remain in country until Pr is granted.kutchiputchi said:screech339 said on a different post:
"If you do land in Canada before baby is born and then deliver in your country, you can start a new PR paperwork for baby. However the baby will have to remain in your country and one of you would have to be in Canada to submit the papers and remain in Canada until baby gets PR"
Is that true?
In our case the sponsor is Canadian citizen not a PR, and she sponsored me and our current child, sec, we live in a visa exempt country.screech339 said:Unless you are from a visa exempt country, your child will need a visa to enter Canada.

Since PR's are required to remain and reside in Canada whenever they sponsor anyone, spouse, dependent or parents, one of you must be in Canada to start PR paperwork and submit it outland. While the other PR parent remain in country with child until PR is granted.
There have been cases whereby both PR parents had to leave child behind to relatives in order to maintain their Pr RO to maintain status or risk losing their Pr due to not meeting residency requirement (2/5 year).
If your wife is Canadian born or Naturalized Canadian, then she can pass canadian citizenship to the child if the child is born in home country. The child would not need to be sponsored at all. The child would need to apply for Canadian citizenship certificate. The child can still enter Canada with home country Passport and apply for citizenship certificate when you are in Canada.kutchiputchi said:In our case the sponsor is Canadian citizen not a PR, and she sponsored me and our current child, sec, we live in a visa exempt country.
So we have both of the options? inland and outland?
Because she was born outside Canada but gotten citizenship through one of her parentsMilesAway said:Outland is still the only option, but if the child is visa-exempt, then the child can enter Canada as a visitor. You will need to apply to extend their stay about 30 days before it expires.
Your original question was not clear, and you did not provide details, which is why there was confusion. If the sponsor is a Canadian citizen, why are they unable to pass that on to the child? Are they a second-generation born abroad? The visa-exempt status is also crucial information.

So we have both options? stay in our current country and submit the application outland, or, move to Canada with child as a visitor and submit inland?
