Entering Canada pregnant

[bassoum]

Hi all,

Just some concern. by thinking about pregnancy is there any restriction/ instruction/ procedure to follow if being pregnant after getting the PR and before entering Canada.
Any declaration to proceed for and whom to contact?
My husband also has his PR and he is in Canada since 2 years, may i benefit from the health service when arriving/ deliver my baby in Alberta.

Many thanks for your support
Besma

As long as you land before the baby is born, there is no problem. If you plan to give birth before you land, you should notify the visa office so they can add the baby to the application and the baby can get a PR visa too.

If you land as a PR in AB, you will have health coverage from the first day. If you have any costs before you are issued a health card, you will be refunded.
