Child Sponsorship: Signing on his behalf

[Montut]

Hi - I am sponsoring my son for PR. He is already in Canada on visitor visa. I have 3 questions:

1. As an Sponsor, I am required to digitally sign the application on his behalf as he is just 1 yr old. While signing the application, do I need to write my Name or his name?

2. I wanted to confirm the response on my previous question, which was answered by @armoured (Thanks so much for your help) - should I mention his current country of stay as Canada. He is on visitor visa. Is it right to show Canada as his current country of residence? He came to Canada 3 months ago.

3. As per the law, he can be in Canada for a maximum of 6 months during any visits to Canada on visitor visa. He is just 13 months. Will it be applicable on him as well?? I mean how a 13 months old can leave the country ??

1. Your name.
2. Canada as already answered by other members here in your other posts.
3. Yes it is applicable, you will have to apply for an extension prior to the end of the 6 months just like anybody else would be required to do.

No I don't but once you have applied for it to be extended the child still is able to stay in Canada while it is being processed. To avoid complications you should apply before the current 6 months is up.

@Canada2020eh @armoured

There is so much confusion and conflict I see around imm5476 representative form signature for minor/infant

I would like to take your suggestion here

For trv... Digital signature how we need to write the signature in the signature of the applicant place??


As a parent should I write as

For( child name ) parent name

Or
Parent name on.behalf of ( child name)
OR

Parent name (mother/father)


Any accepted format we have? Also is this same format to use during the submission of the application

Kindly share

I do not know for certain but believe you simply write the parent's name.
