Hi,

I have a question:

My wife is PR and we live together in Canada.
As per the instructions for IMM008 on the portal, one should add ALL children as dependant, even if they are already Canadian citizen.
Our baby was born here in July and as such is Canadian citizen. As per the checklist we are to add a birth certificate.

However, do I add him as Type A accompanying or as non-accompanying?
Of course he stays with us, so he would be "accompanying", but then again he doesn't need to "immigrate" as he is a citizen already.

Has anybody been in a similar situation?

Also, do we have to pay the additional 150 CAD for adding a child?
