Under "PART B - SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS REQUIRED" and at the bottom of question #3, there appears to be what is possibly an error. There are two boxes "yes" and "no" but there is nothing to indicate what it is that we are choosing "yes" or "no" about. I do not want to put a checkmark in the "no" box without really knowing what it is all about. Can someone help me with this?
Here is the question for Part B, question #3...
---------------------------------------------------------------
Do you (the sponsor) and the person you are sponsoring have (a) child(ren) together who
may have a claim to Canadian citizenship?
No Yes
If you (the sponsor) are a Canadian Citizen who is sponsoring your spouse, and you both have a child together, your child may be a Canadian citizen, even if the child was born outside Canada. A Canadian citizen is not eligible to be sponsored and cannot be issued a visa.
The official way to confirm whether your child born outside Canada is a Canadian citizen is to apply for a proof of citizenship (https://
www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/application-forms-guides/application-citizenshipcertificate-adults-
minors.html
). If it is confirmed that your child is a Canadian citizen, they are eligible for a Canadian passport.
If you answered “Yes” to the question above: Please include a copy of one of the following for each child with your application: Canadian birth certificate showing the names of both parents; Canadian passport (biodata page only), citizenship certificate (i.e. proof of citizenship), or
proof of application for a proof of citizenship. This will help IRCC confirm that your child does not require immigrant processing.
Note: Your application will not be returned to you if you do not submit this.
No Yes
