Hi,

I need your advice, my baby born in Canada, my wife is non-Canadian. As per my understanding from the below statements I can travel to Canada during this travel band due to covid19. Could you please confirm or guide me how to travel to Canada. I have a valid TRV.

Immediate family member is a parent

Where the foreign national is a parent, there is no requirement to establish dependency.

Recommended documentation for travel

Note:
Immediate family members of Canadian citizens, persons registered as Indians under the Indian Act or permanent residents do not require any written authorization from IRCC.

Documentation showing their immediate family member’s Canadian citizenship, status as a person registered as an Indian or permanent resident status, such as a

  • Canadian passport
  • proof of Canadian citizenship such as a citizenship certificate, citizenship card or provincial or territorial birth certificate
  • Certificate of Indian Status (status card)
  • Temporary Confirmation of Registration Document (TCRD)
  • Canadian permanent resident card
  • Canadian permanent resident travel document (visa counterfoil)
  • visa-exempt foreign passport and IRCC Special Authorization for Canadian Citizens (consult Canadian citizens travelling on a foreign passport)
Documentation showing their relationship to that immediate family member, such as a

  • marriage certificate or proof of common law status (documents showing a shared address or similar)
  • birth certificate
  • Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR) for the family class (the COPR category under Application Details will be FC) or under the one-year window (coded OYW under Special Program)
  • other document(s) supporting an immediate family connection (for example, correspondence from IRCC showing spousal sponsorship in progress or documentation indicating a common residential address)
Electronic copies of the documents listed above are acceptable.

What is your wife’s status in Canada? Is she a student, WP holder, etc. Or is this birth tourism?
