Thanks for all the helpful replies. I have one that needs your help.
I'm helping a friend, a single mom, Canadian citizen, who lives in Ontario. She has two kids born in the USA - boy is 8 yrs old, girl is 4. They entered Canada (Ontario) in June 2016. They are permanently residing since then in Toronto. I reviewed their U S passports and there are no visa or entry stamps in either of them. They also have NO immigration documents such as a Record of Landing, or Confirmation of Permanent Residence. They do not have PR status, however the mom applied for Cdn citizenship for them in August, 2018, and she has the application tracking numbers and letter from IRCC to that effect. Citizenship is in progress.
She applied for OHIP for them a couple of years ago, got OHIP coverage, but in Sept 2018 OHIP advised her they have communicated with IRCC and because (I think) IRCC could not confirm their status (?) OHIP has been cut off for the kids.
I plan to go with her to Service Ontario 777 Bay next week. She has documents from List 3 Proof of Identity (kids' passports), as well as List 2 Proof of Residency (school letter and child tax benefit statement), but I'm at somewhat of a loss to think of what documents we can show for List 1 "Proof of Canadian Citizenship or OHIP Eligible Immigration Status". Would the confirmation letter from IRCC for application for Citizenship be enough? Also, would this be considered a renewal request for OHIP (since the kids are already in their computer system?) or a new OHIP application altogether. Thanks for all your help.
