Sponsoring a dependent child

[Chai28]

Hello. Goodmorning. I'm Chailin, from Philippines. I just want to ask something. Because my mother keeps on telling me that I can't be included in her sponsorship as dependent child because of I'm pregnant. That's why she told me that it's so sad for me that I can't go with her. My question is can I still be included as dependent child in her sponsorship even though I'm turning 2month pregnant? ? Btw I'm already 21 and unmarried.

She is wrong. If you are 21 or below, unmarried and not in a common-law partnership, she can include you as her dependent, pregnant or not.

Since you are from the Philippines, can we clarify if you are in a "live-in" relationship with the father of your child? If you are, have you been living together for a year or more? If you have, then your mother is correct, not because of your pregnancy but because of your live-in relationship which equals to common-law in Canada. Again, being "single" technically does not make you single in Canadian law. This is a common misconception/excuse given and IRCC knows it.

If the above is unrelated to you, being pregnant should not stop your mother from sponsoring you.

No,I'm not in a live in relationship. We don't even been living for a year nor months.

And I'm living together with my mother and my grandma.

But is there any chance that I can be included in her dependents? What if she didn't put me in her dependents? Is there any possible that it might change and include me??

What kind of visa is your mother getting?

Visa for Permanent Residence

She must be in her 40s and she is living in the Philippines so surprised she qualifies for PR unless she has previously worked in Canada.

Yes she lives here in the Philippines together with us..but that's why she had that kind of visa is because her husband is a Canadian.

Yes she could include you as a dependent.

 

[Chai28]

Yes she could include you as a dependent.

Can even the embassy will also get noticed about what she did for not including me on her dependents? ?

 

[canuck78]

She was supposed to declare all family members and dependents. She could try and change it before she gets
PR but would need to explain why you weren't declared initially.

I also got no idea why she did that. For what I know maybe because she doesn't want me to go there together with her, or maybe it will take her to a long procedure if she includes me or maybe her husband doesn't like me to go there.
