Hello, I applied for sponsorship for my 1 year old child (online inland application) in February and received AOR in June. Since then I have received no updates and have been trying to what application trackers I can find. I have tried the following: - PR tracker: I can only access using my...

I'm sorry. I just heard of someone who applied online in November for dependent child inland sponsorship and didn't get an answer until May. The good thing is he got sponsorship during the same month.

Hi everyone, We've been living in Canada for 5 months and we are both PR parents of a 1 year old daughter that has a visitor status and is being sponsored. We have 1 month to go out of Canada and meet our residency requirements and would like to visit family in the US for 2 weeks. We are...

Thank you. I am wondering if it is possible they would not allow my 1 year old daughter to enter Canada for a second time? Me and my husband are PR, we have been living in Canada for 5 months and would like to visit family in the US for 2 weeks. We have a month to go out of Canada an meet our...

Hello, I've been getting mixed answers on this and am hoping for any leads on where I can get the official information. We are from a Visa exempt country and our 1 year old daughter is in Canada with a temporary visitor status (which has to be renewed every 6 months), and in which the officer...

It looks like online applications are running slower than paper. We thought it might be the opposite and applied online on February 22nd for our 1 year old daughter living in Canada (both parents are PR's in Canada). We received an email confirming the application was submitted, and haven't...

Hi, I've been looking everywhere for this answer, but can't find it. We moved to Canada permanently on February this year (did a soft landing in 2019), and our daughter will start daycare in April. I understand we do not have to file a tax return because we were not living in Canada during...

Yes, our country doesn't require a visa, so I guess we should start by applying for an ETA? And do you know if we have to quarantine in the city where we enter Canada or can we still travel by plane through Canada until we get to our final destination? We're thinking of arriving to Vancouver...

Thank you for your reply, it's what I was expecting. Would our daughter be able to enter the country under the "reuniting with or accompanying family (including committed romantic partners)" reason? Because unvaccinated tourists are not allowed usually in the country (she's unvaccinated because...

Hello, Me and my husband did a short landing in March 2019 to become PRs. We came back to our home country and will now move definitely to Canada in February 2022, to be able to meet our residency requirements. In the meanwhile we had a child, which will be 1 year old when arriving to Canada...

Thank you, yes we are compliant with our RO. I received the following response from OHIP: "You have indicated that you are sponsoring your daughter for permanent residency. Once her application reaches the stage of approval where IRCC confirms that she meets the eligibility requirements to...

Hi, Me and my husband are PR and are moving to Canada with our baby who was born abroad. We are from a visa exempt country so she will be entering with an ETA, and we will be sponsoring her for PR. I am worried about her access to healthcare while she waits for her PR that will take months. I...
