@ Orire, congrats on the arrival of the new baby, may the Lord make him affect his generations positively but while u await accra's response u need to know that u'll be needing Birth Certificate and International passport for the boy as this will be part of the requirements Accra will include in their response to you. Below find a copy of the mail we received when we were to add our baby.
Dear Sir/Madam,
For the new addition to your family, kindly provide the following:
* An updated IRPA application for you and your spouse. An application includes the Application for Permanent Residence in Canada [IMM 0008], the Schedule 1: Background/Declaration [IMM 0008 SCHEDULE 1] and the Additional Family Information form [IMM 5406]. Forms can be found at: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/application-regular.asp.
* Payment of the Application for Permanent Residence Fee for your new dependent if he is accompanying. (for current fees, please consult: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/fees/fees.asp)
* Copies of birth certificate for your new dependant
* 4 passport-sized photos for your new dependant, as per the photo specifications found in Appendix C of the visa office specific instructions. See: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/guides/E37100.pdf;
* Copies of the biographical pages from valid passports for your new dependant.
I took my baby to the passport office at just 11days, so since you wouldn't want any time wasted start preparing once the baby is named forward march to get the Birth Certificate as well as to the passport office.
All the best.
