Canadian citizen travelling with foreign child

[Suin]

Hello,
could you please advise from your experience, whether Canadian citizen (sponsor) can go to another country and get a child to travel back with him in case child's mother cannot do it herself due to her health issues and child got his application approved?
thank you

What is your relationship to the child and the child's mother?

So your question is...

Can an approved dependant land without the principle?

I am his mother, but by the time our application is approved I will not be able to travel. I just wanted to know if my husband who is Canadian can go & bring him to Canada to live with us?

that's a good question too

I am not up on the POE stuff (Point of entry). I would think that the officers would not land a Dependant without the principle applicant. (I am to assume that your husband is not the father....since that would make the child Canadian).

I seem to remember that a Dependant can only land at the same time or after...

thank you for your reply, ImmEnforce.
In my case I would like dependants to arrive a few months after the principal applicant. You think that it's really possible?
