Quick question on Protected person PR applicant with dependants abroad

[Gfr]

Hello, I applied for PR as a protected person August 2024, got AOR and biometric request in Dec 2024, submitted same month, and in May 2025 I was requested to fill out and send imm5476 5406 0008, passport copy and other documents for my minor dependant living abroad. And now both my application and baby is in progress as was advised by IRCC when I called, and he does have a UCI numbers.
Just wondering if this is the normal process for applicants with minor dependant abroad ,as I did think my PR will be issued before my dependants application is processed abroad. Anyone with similar experience to walk me through the process.
Would appreciate.

I think your children have your same number or father/mother abroad if he/she is included.
My daughter has no UCI number, but share number with my husband. They are associated.

Thank you for your reply
Did they get this UCI number in the middle of your PR application or was it approved before they got this ?

When you got your AOR in the email of confirmation/notify for your partner, there appear the UCI.

So is that when your (principal applicant) PR is still in process?

Yes. But to confirm your child number call IRCC . They can tell You. I'm not expert. Always that's the Best way to clear doubts.
