Hi, my case is as follow:

1) My application for spouse sponsorship immigration is still processing
2) My visitor visa is expired but I am still able to stay in Canada because of the implied status
3) I am pregnant now but not yet notified Canada immigration office
4) I would like to give birth in Canada. However, I want to travel to my home country in 6-8 months of my pregnancy.

My home country passport granted a visa free access to Canada for 6 months. Will I be rejected to enter to Canada when I am 8 months of my pregnancy?

Aren't there flying restrictions during the third trimester? I'm not sure you'd even be allowed to board the flight.

2) My visitor visa is expired but I am still able to stay in Canada because of the implied status
Implied status does not give you the right to re-enter Canada, whether you are pregnant or not.

And if your application is Inland, you must remain IN CANADA for your Inland application to be processed. If you leave for several months and CIC finds out, they will throw out your application as invalid.

If your application was Outland, then you do not have implied status, and it is your responsibility to maintain your status (visit, study, or work) in Canada.

To give better advice, I think we'd need more details about your situation. Is your sponsor a Canadian citizen or PR? How long ago did you submit your application? Are you from a visa-exempt country?

If you leave Canada, you are taking a big risk that you won't be able to come back in, especially if you plan to be gone for months.

It sounds like you're applying inland, in that case, you're not supposed to leave Canada during the entire processing of the application.

Airlines don't like to fly heavily pregnant women, so if (and that's a big IF) you are even allowed to board the plane, yes, there is the possibility of being refused entry. Canada isn't fond of visitors coming in to the country to give birth, and regardless of your PR app in progress, you would still just be a visitor.

If you applied inland, you really shouldn't leave, especially if you are pregnant. It's a huge risk.

You lost "implied status" the moment you left Canada. You got no status at the moment until you are let back in Canada.

Yes - the child will have citizenship. Typically the delivery will not be covered by the government - you would have to pay for these costs out of your own pocket. For us to fully answer this question you would need to give us more information on how you are applying for PR (inland or outland), which province if you are inland, when you applied and when the baby is due, if you included an OWP with the application if you are inland.

Hello

Thank you for the prompt reply. I am an Indian citizen and my husband is a Canadian citizen. We have filed on 12 th January. We have not received an AOR yet. But I want to apply for the visitors visa after I get my UCI number. Due to medical conditions we need to have a baby soon. So we will have to plan our pregnancy there. We have applied for an Outland way for immigration. But I have no clue how much time will that take. And due to our medical condition we will have to plan for our pregnancy so I wanted your guidance

You'll need to tell us which province you plan to go to.

Most likely you'll have no health care coverage until three months after your PR visa has been approved.

Before you make any further plans, I would wait and see if the TRV is approved. TRVs are often refused when CIC knows you have plans on remaining in Canada long term and aren't a genuine visitor.

You should post your question about processing time in the New Delhi thread. Since your husband is in Toronto, you will not have health coverage until three months after your PR application has been approved.

Thank you very much for the guidance. Can you please tell me if it's advisable to apply for the TRV ?? I know the chances of issuing one are less but I would like to take your opinion. I would like to visit him atleast for 2 weeks if not more as I want to be with my hauband for his treatment.

Also I am having a job already so I cannot even have more holidays. So if you can please guide if we can apply for TRV?? I would not like I go against any law of the country so if not advisable then I won't even try applying for TRV. Please do guide

You can apply for a TRV any time. It's really your choice if you apply for not.
