Hi! How are you? My spouse, a permanent resident of Canada since 2012, is sponsoring me. I have a child with my previous relationship and I want him to come with me once my application approved. My spouse is willing to sponsor my son, is that possible?

yes, the child needs to be listed in the application as an "accompanying dependent" and will need to complete a medical exam. this is very common.

Hi

You must show either permission from the other parent or court papers granting you full and complete custody.

Shall I include my spouse as guardian in IMM5604E ( Non accompanying parent for minors immigrating to canada) or just me?

It should be your name as you are the other parent and that your child will be travelling with you.

Thank you. I already sent the IMM5604E and my son's mother already signed it and notarized as well.

I have a question about medical, maybe you guy can help me. We are doing the final review it catches our attention to medical. Do we need to include the medical result to my application or should I wait for the immigration to send me the 1017 form? I am currently here in Canada. Can I do my medical here in Canada? Should be an accredited clinic by CIC? Does my son need also to undergo medical? He is in the Philippines. Thanks.

It is best to have an upfront medical examination for you and your child. What is your current status in Canada? Yes, it must be an accredited clinic by CIC. For list of panel physicians in Philippines, you may check this site < http://www.cic.gc.ca/pp-md/pp-list.aspx >

Yes, you can do your medical here in Canada. As long as it is a CIC designated medical office, it's fine.
