hmm, that puzzles me too.. i do know philippine passport holders require a visa to enter canada, i'm not sure if that applies to your kid who holds philippine passport but is a canadian citizen. why not inquire the embassy? ???
Bukas tatawag na lng ako sa embassy, hay sana kahit yung operator ang sasagot eh masasagot nya mga tanong ko.. :'( thank you sis for you replies :)

May I butt in?

So your son is Canadian by descent dahil Canadian ang tatay right (sorry I did not read your previous posts kasi eh, was the dad Canadian when the kid was born)? And he is dual citizen dahil you are Filipina that's why he has a Philippine passport. The VO won't issue him a visa dahil Canadian citizen nga ang bata. You should have applied for proof of citizenship for him, after nyong makuha yung certificate na yun he can then apply for a Canadian passport dyan sa Canadian Embassy dyan sa Manila.

Please read the link that I attached here:

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/certif.asp


The current processing time is 7 months so medyo tricky yan if you have your visa already. It's either mauna ka ng mag land and come back for the kid later or try to have your visa extended.

Or another thing is once you apply for the certificate you can apply for a limited validity passport for the kid. Ilang taon na ba ang bata? If he is a couple months old pa lang you can apply for temporary passport for him.

You can find your passport application forms at http://www.ppt.gc.ca/cdn/index.aspx?lang=eng For the baby, you have to start by applying for the certificate of citizenship through the Canadian embassy where you are. You can find the forms here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/certif.asp The processing time is long but you can apply for a temporary passport for the baby at the embassy once you have applied for the citizenship certificate. You can also ask to have the citizenship certificate expedited if you have plans to travel with the baby in the near future.

Complicated nga yan... :(. Sorry pero wala din ako idea, yan din kasi inisip namin ng hubby ko last time na nag visit sya, we planned to have a baby but then we thought it will be very complicated so we decided to hold off and wait for our papers first then come back to canada and then maybe saka na kami mag baby. Pero curious din ako to know pano nga ba yung ganung case. ::)

eto na research last april 2009 may new law about sa children born outside canada even the father is canadian ur son wont be a canadian citizen automatically instead file for citizenship.question q lng un passport ba ng ank mo eh philippine passport pa?f yes dapat meorn din xa visa to go kc temporary passport nya yan then wen u arrived sa canada file for a citizenship na and it takes 10 months ata un processing kc.

eto pa na search q kaya cguro walang stamp n visa un sa baby mo kc under 18 months xa ibase mo dito,nkita q sa ibang link nmn kc,


By “visa exempted passport” you mean, for example, a baby born in Hong Kong, who could gain entry to Canada without a consular visa, right?

What do such parents do? Postpone their landing for 14 months, I guess, or else leave the baby with relatives. Not a very appealing prospect for them..

From my link, the Hong Kong website wrote "Following submission of the citizenship application, if travel plans cannot be deferred, you may submit a fully completed passport application along with all supporting documentation as well as your child's proof of travel, itinerary or airline ticket, as supporting documentation to assess the case. As your child does not have citizenship documents, you will need to submit the original proof of Canadian citizenship from one of the parents, the original foreign birth certificate showing both parents' names, original marriage certificate of the parents (optional), and the receipt confirming submission of the citizenship application. Our passport examiners will assess your case and determine the necessity of issuing a limited validity passport to meet your child's travel needs.



i hope it help u research p aq.

I messaged her and advised her to apply for the proof of citizenship, it takes 7-10 months dahil it will come from Canada. As soon as she submits it she can use that to possibly apply for a Canadian passport for her kid. CEM can issue a temporary/limited validity passport for the child. Whatever way she choose, she has to act fast. She can defer her trip to Canada, until she receives that temporary passport but she needs to inform CEM as soon as possible. Her best bet is to go straight to the Embassy and start the ball rolling and hope that the temp passport will be granted.
