Thread for 2019 - 2020 - Dependent Child sponsorship Applications

[spikegin]

Hi,
When you say medical accepted, did you mean medical passed?

Our medical was received by CIC 3 weeks ago but haven't heard anything after that. I see a lot of people here with medical approvals almost immediately after medical results being received by CIC.

Yes...The medicals have passed.
Looks like there is nothing to do other than wait.
Thanks

Correct, in your case, you don't need to fill this out.

Hi everyone,

I have arrived in Canada sometime back. The PR for my wife has expired and she could not travel as she was pregnant when Covid happened. The child was born in September 2020.

IRCC has now given an authorization letter for my wife to travel by end of April but not for my child (even though we did ask them to add my child). I contacted IRCC for them to travel again recently and they asked me that I will have to sponsor the child. In the meanwhile to apply for Temporary visa for the child to travel along with my wife.

I am confused about a few questions before proceeding for TRV application, it will be great if anyone could help me with what you had selected or recommend -
1) Should I select the duration of stay for child in TRV as <6months or >6months? Because actually we would want the child to get longer duration visa.
2) Should I mention that I will be applying for sponsorship for the child in the TRV LOE?
3) Are you giving someone access to your application? - Do I have to select "Yes, I will be appointing a representative to apply on my behalf" as I will be completing the application on behalf of my baby?
4) Did your representative give you a submission letter? - I have Selected No
5) What would you like to do in Canada? - Should I select 'Visit' or 'move there' for my child?
6) What is the main purpose of your visit? - I have selected To visit family and/or friends

I know these are very specific and many questions, but don't want to make mistakes. I am also not getting answers to these specific points anywhere online.

I will be very thankful if someone could help me with these.

I have similar timelines. My kids were born in India as wife got stuck in India during pregnancy in August 2020. Did you apply for PRTD for you wife on which you tried to include your kid?

I applied for TRV in September 2020 but still waiting for it, Have sent an email to Covid email id about 2 weeks back but no response yet. I also applied for Family sponsorship in Mid December 2020 for which I got the PPR today. I am in Canada right now so wife will be sending in the passport soon.

Cannot say if this is right for everyone but in my case I gave the duration of 6 months only and also mentioned that I will be applying for Sponsorship soon and in case it does not come through then I will make arrangements for kids and my wife to go back to India. Also do not mention that reason as "move there". Generally different officers handle PR and TRV requests so if they read "move there" they may reject it right away. For point 3 you can select "No" as both Sponsor and applicant can access the application (especially in case the applicant is minor)

Hey All.
Any one knows how to submit request for Passport submission to Delhi VAC? I got PPR for my kids today but the email mentioned a general link on Passport Transmission instructions :
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
All required documents must be submitted in one single package.
A) To submit your package while overseas:
Please submit your package to the nearest Visa Application Centre along with the VAC Passport Transmission fee.
For Passport Transmission instructions and fee details, please visit:
https://www.vfsglobal.ca/canada/
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Does anyone know how much time is it taking for Passport stamping at Delhi?

Also there is a mention of Right of Permanent Residence Fee (RPRF) :
If not yet paid, Right of Permanent Residence Fee (RPRF) for you and your accompanying spouse (if applicable). We strongly encourage you to pay your fees online and provide a copy of the receipt. To pay your fees online, click here: https://eservices.cic.gc.ca/epay/welcome.do.

Is it applicable to Family sponsorship aplications? I paid $285 as fee earlier ($150 for Sponsorhip of a dependent child fee + $85 for biometrics). I got the refund earlier for the Biometrics fee.
