Thread for 2017 - Dependent Child sponsorship Applications

tozach said:
Yes, you can apply for a visitor visa after the baby is born. Explain the situation in a Letter of Explanation (LoE). For example, explain how the delivery couldnt be in Canada due to complications. Also mention that you will be applying for a sponsorship as soon as you are in Canada and that you need the visitor visa to be able to travel together as a family. And that you will respect all the conditions of the visitor visa. Include insurance for at least 3 months. If you have a good travel history, also mention that. From my experience, this gives you the best chance for a visitor visa.

But please keep in mind that the visitor visa could be denied. Many cases on this forum also have reported rejection of visitor visa requests. I also had the first visitor visa for my daughter rejected.

If the visitor visa is rejected, you could apply for a TRP. Otherwise, or if the TRP is also rejected, you will have to travel to Canada and then apply for the sponsorship. It is expected that you are in Canada throughout the application process. Short trips outside Canada should be OK.



It helps if you have a job. But if you can show funds in Canada, that should be sufficient. Dependent visas doesnt have a minimum requirement. Again, use a letter of explanation and mention that you are looking for jobs and that you have sufficient funds to support your family. Include as much proof as possible (Bank statements, Tax returns and bank statements from your previous country of residence, etc.).

Congrats and all the best!

Could you kindly let me know what the Pre-arrival services mail is?
I also received a letter on June 22, which said "Great News! Your application for Permanent Residence has arrived in Hong Kong. We are really looking forward to working with you on your journey to immigrate to Canada! It’s time to start thinking about your move to Canada and here are some resources that we hope you’ll find helpful.". Then 2 months passed, and no news updated. So is this the Pre-arrival service mail?

Thanks.

That doesnt look like a pre-arrival services mail. It looks like your application has been tranferred to HK and they have acknowledged it. The pre-arrival services looks like:-

Hello,
We are pleased to inform you that you, your spouse and dependants can now receive free
pre-arrival services funded by the Government of Canada. These services are available
before you arrive and are meant to better prepare you for life in Canada.
Pre-arrival services are provided on behalf of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship
Canada (IRCC) by settlement service provider organizations. These service providers
offer free information to help you with:
• Living and working in Canada;
• Getting your education, work experience, and professional licenses and
certificates recognized in Canada;
• Connecting with employers, and with free supports when you arrive in Canada,
including language training; and
• Connecting with others in your new community, including French-speaking
communities.

and some more information
