Two types of identification for minors

[leinadaniel]

Hello all,

As you know they ask for two pieces of identification of minor, one of which must include a photo. PR card cannot be used for this.

We are applying with a minor, but we only have his passport as a picture ID. Would this suffice? He has no other document with his picture on it. What are your experiences?

use his passport and a copy of his healthcard

You need only 1 doc with picture

Two (2) pieces of the child’s personal identification

Both pieces of identification should show your child’s name and date of birth, one of which must have a photo on it.

Examples include:

• school record
• health insurance card

If there is information on both sides of your child’s personal identification documents, provide a photocopy of both sides.

For a child under school age, identification such as:

• a passport page containing his or her photo and personal details, or
• a hospital or immunization record, may be provided
