Hi

A passport is not required for a non-accompanying dependent.

So what exactly does my husband need of the child for his application ?
At the very least, the child will need to pass the immigration medical examination (IME) when requested. The checklist should answer your question.

I have the check list but all I wanted to know if we can just submit the birth certificate of the child instead of a actual passport for the child the check list is a bit confusing in a way.

The checklist states to send passport copies for accompanying family members.
