Just checking in here, in a few days we have my partner’s children immigrating from the Philippines and I’m getting paranoid about them being denied entry due to missing some kind of document.
- what kind of documents do you need to immigrate or travel without one parent? We followed the guidelines on the Canadian government website (a notarized permission letter from the mother) and there was also a permission form she signed when we were applying for the visa (which we don’t have as it was submitted with the visa application) The parents have no formal custody agreement (custom of the Philippines is that custody defaults to the mother) but we have notarized letters for all their travel.
- the kids are just coming to “flagpole” at the moment so that their visa doesn’t expire. They have some school to finish up at home and will visit Canada for 3 weeks, returning in the future before their residency requirements expire. Should we keep this on the down-low? I’m assuming this is allowed.
Thanks so much!
