Can we apply for CCB benefit for our US born little one? Please share ur experience about that.
USA born baby to Canadian PR parents

Yes although CCB will be based on your previous US income so the CCB payments may be pretty small.
Looks like in the current scenario it takes at least a year for a US-born baby to get PR. So usually the US citizen can stay for only 6 months without any visa. After that what are the options? Should we apply Visitor visa for the baby? Can we apply while we are in Canada? Or is there any other visa option for the baby to stay until the baby gets PR?
Hi folks,
This question has been asked before in this thread, but I wanted to ask again in May 2021 with so many changes happening in Travel / Visa rules due to COVID.
Me and my wife are Canadian PR.
I moved to Vancouver, BC a week back from Seattle, WA, USA as a part of our permanent move.
My wife and 21 month old kid are still in Seattle and plan to cross over by road in another month.
We got our PR before our kid was born, so he doesn't have a PR.
He is however a US Citizen and we have his Passport and US Birth Certificate.
I thank you for your responses and comments!

- Will he be able to cross the border with my wife using just his US Passport and Birth Certificate?
- I understand we have 6 months to apply for his PR. Is that correct?
- If the PR application takes more time, does one have to extend his Visitor Visa?
- Can we ask for a year of Visitor Visa at the border? Has anyone actually obtained 1 year of visitor visa for their baby?
I thank you for your responses and comments!
Yes
Not correct . You can apply as long as you want .
PR taking 15 months so you have to extend visitor visa
yes i got one year max at border .
Hi All, Just checking if you all received your application number. I recieved an application number and a UCI in an email from IRCC, but i could not link it to the online account. It says, not searchable....Please let me know your experience.
Also when i crossed the border with our US born child, i didn't really ask for a visitor record. How does one know how long they have admitted him for? I have seen 6mnths typically, what should we do after 6 months.

thank you. Any idea about my other question regarding linking paper application to my account. Doesn't seem to find it, tried various combinations. Any thoughts.
You have to be in Canada when you apply. We have not got PR approval, just the sponsorship approval which came in 23 days. The whole PR process seems to be taking 17 months according to the processing times that are published.
May I know what’s the procedure for this? Do we need to show again proof of funds, medical , biometrics for the baby?
