If I get PR successfully, will my stepchild( 10 years old) be eligible to study in Canada without any study permit? She will be accompanied by my wife and they both will be staying on Visitor Visa till I finish their sponsorship process.
Edit: I would like to mention that my wife has complete custody of the child.

Thank you for your reply. Thing is they both will be my dependents and the stepchild will also be my dependent only. The thing is I don't want her studies to get disturbed. So i am hoping there will be some way of her being able to study in Canada based on me being PR holder and she being my dependent.

Did you adopt the child? Family members would be entitled but a stepchild is not your family member. You have to check with the local school board or there is always the option to pay for schooling.

depending on the province, the child might be able to go to school without a study permit, and once the mother get a work permit (that is if you will be submitting and inland application with open work permit) it would make things easier. You should also look into health insurance, again depending with the province, you might be able to add them as your dependents on your health plan after they have lived in Canada for a couple of months (the school will also ask for the child's provincial health plan number)

Because with them included, my score reduces and I will be further losing points as I will become 30. So I am applying alone so I can get immigrate and then sponsor my family later.

No, I haven't adopted her yet. I don't mind paying for a while till their PR sponsorship process completes.
I just wanted to confirm whether she can go to school being a PR holder's minor dependent (Whether paid or unpaid) or will she be completely denied schooling and education in Canada.

Just wanted to know if anyone has had such kind of experiences in Canada. All the documentation and FAQs mention biological or adoptive. So step-parent has no rights whatsoever? I cannot specify myself as a parent who has PR in Canada in my case?
