anyone else have a baby while waiting for a decision? I'm Canadian but my wife and stepson are still waiting on a decision before they can move with me to Canada. In the meantime, we've just given birth to a new baby girl =]
It looks like I need to apply for a certificate of Canadian citizenship for the baby (which takes 8-10 months!!!) before I can apply for her passport... does this mean another year of waiting :'( ? Or is there a way around this? My visa to Thailand runs out in December, and while I can probably get another, nothing is assured.
-If for some reason I CAN'T get another Thai visa, will I have to go back to Canada, leaving my daughter here with her mother?
-In my situation, what would happen if leaving my baby here were impossible (say, if her mother had passed away or deserted the child)?
