Undeclared children

[pavin24]

I have 3 children when the application was under processing in Federal Skilled Migrant Program.
I did not know about the existence of my third child at this time. So i informed the remaining two children though both were seperated from me by their parents. I have to give declaration that i cannot sponsor them in the future.
Once I landed canada in 2011, a filipina girl who met me in 2009 informed me about my child born to her. This is around 40 days after my landing.
I informed to CIC immediately and left Canada to see my child. Then I stayed with this girl for 14 months. We got a new child and I informed her birth once born.
As I have no PR card, I applied for a Permanent resident travel document to come Canada back. In this application also, I have given the information of all the 4 children. this happened in 2012.
I came Canada last year and completed the first year of my master degree with student loan and doing the second year of studies. I got PR card also.
My girlfriend [common law spouse] applied two times canada visit visa application with chidlren wih my invitation letter. It was denied but now all have client numbers. In so many ways, these children were informed to CIC after my landing in canada.
If I sponosor my family, will it affect my PR status. Now CIC has record about me , my common law partner, the last two children.
Also if my girl friend apply, work permit or student permit will it be possible for the children to get dependent visa of her.

I think the chances that your common law partner will be approved for a study or work permit are extremely low. To be approved, she must demonstrate that she has strong ties to her home country and no plans on remaining in Canada long term. Given her common law partner is Canadian, she has applied for a TRV before and she wants to bring her children with her - it will be easy for CIC to arrive at the conclusion that she wants to remain in Canada long term.

Your first child with your current common law partner is no longer regarded as a member of your family since you failed to declare the child when you originally immigrated - and technically cannot be sponsored. If you can prove that you did not know about this child before you immigrated, it might be possible to change this. However your situation is complicated and if you want the best chance of success for you and your family, I would recommend that you hire a good immigration lawyer to help you with your file.
