Hello,

What forms do I need to fill in order to sponsor my child for PR
status while we are in Canada? Our child was born outside of Canada
and is now on TRP (Temporary Resident Permit) visa. We, the parents,
are already PR and residents of Canada.

Would I be required to do medical examination for the baby? or they
will use same medical examination results obtained one month ago while
applying for TRP Visa outside the country?

Thank you

I forgot to add... that the child was born after the parents have
landed and obtained thier visas. The parents landed in Ontario and now
residing in Quebec.

How long the TRP for?

AFAIK you will need to sponsor the child under Family Class
(outside processing). Please the information here:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/sponsor/spouse-apply-how.asp

and the form here:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/fc.asp

Note that the spouse / common-law in-Canada class is not
available for your case.

A minor child will probably be allowed to stay with you in Canada but the
sponsorship will have to go to Mississauga and the application through
Buffalo.  Keep the child's visa status legal in Canada.

Thanks Arif Sahari,

I figured if sponsored person is inside Canada, then we only need Part
A and Part B. (i.e. Part C is not required). These parts are indicated
in the second link you provided.

But for people living in Quebec (and intend to continue to live in
Quebec) they must submit additional forms and supporting documents.
One part that is confusing in this case is the requiremnet of proof of
income to proof financial ability to sponsor. If the parent have just
moved to Canada and have not started employment, what other ways can a
sponsor provide a proof of income? And would the MICC or MRCI of
Quebec require the same?

Would it be required to medical check again sine we already did the
check one month ago in the country of origin?

Thanks

Sorry, you are incorrect. All part is needed. The application
will be sent exactly the same as if the sponsored child is
outside Canada. The sponsored child being in Canada does not
change that.

In this particular case, if you claim Canada as your residence,
the application will be processed in Buffalo, NY. So the region
you used for your application is "United States".

That's true. For Quebec, please read here:
http://www.immigration-quebec.gouv.qc.ca/en/immigrate-settle/sponsors-sponsored/
http://www.immigration-quebec.gouv.qc.ca/en/immigrate-settle/sponsors-sponsored/
apply/

The parent has income before, right? You can submit proof of
that previous income, e.g. proof of tax return in previous
country.

Note that if you only sponsor your child, there is no minimum
income requirement (unless your child already has a child of
his/her own).

If the medical check is indeed the same one, then AFAIK you
should be able to use it. However I am not sure whether the
medical check for TRP is the same as for PR. Did you bring any
form to medical? Did the doctor know it is for TRP not PR?
