Dear Mr CohenMy husband and I ( and our 4 month old baby ) are currently preparing the documents for applying for immigration to Canada.
The principal applicant is going to be me.
We live in France now.
I hope you can help me with the following questions:
1. My husband has a 11 years old child born from a previos relationship ( they were not married ) who leavs with his mother in Peru. We do not intend to take this child with us to Canada.
a. Will this child have to go through medical exams ?
b. Will this child need to have a passport in order
to identify him self for this medical exam ?
c. Do we have to provide any legal documents regrading
this child ? We do not have any.
2. What is the nature of the background check done by the immigartion authorities ?
My husband is Peruvian. His name is so common in Peru that it has already happend in the past the people with the
same name were "wanted".
Last year he was put into the armee jail for 8 days just because a 19 years old man with the same name escaped the armee and despite the fact it is clear my husband is much more then 19 years old.
We are afraid that a similar case will perevnt us from getting the visa to Canada.
Thank you very much for your help
Best Regards
Michal
