How to add dependent children in express entry profile

[vijaytoor]

Hi All,

I have created profile in express entry, after selecting yes to question "Will your spouse accompany you?" I was given option to enter spouse's details such as name,age,IELTS score, education etc.
I have one child but I did not find any form where I can fill my child's details(name, age etc).
Although I have entered 3 in the number of members in family textbox.
I am not sure where I can enter my child's details.
As of now on my application I am seeing my name as primary applicant and my spouse's name as dependent applicant. How can I enter my child's info.

Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Vijay

You will only enter child's names in the e-APR (post ITA).

What if spouse is not accompanying? Only child is accompanying the primary applicant? Thank you

It will be the same as the EE, there will be a question in eAPR if dependents are accompanying.

Same problem here, added the name on eAPR but no information was requested, no checklist was generated and no fee was requested. Is this normal or something is wrong here?

I had same question. Then this forum eased my worries. Thanks

If I opt for spouse is not accompanying me to canada, does that mean they can never come? because when i choose no spouse name and other demographic details are not asked, but I have included a family size of 2. can any one help me out here? I am expecting a child in three weeks so for the profile I say for now two (family size) can i modify alter to three?

thanks in advance

Have you received an ITA? If yes, you can submit your eAPR with spouse regardless accompanying or not, then you can add your newborn anytime. To do this, follow the instruction in your AOR how to inform CIC of any change in family composition.

If at the time of submission of your application you opted for non-accompanying dependents, you can sponsor them through the Family Class when you are already in Canada. However, this could take up to 12 months.
