Hello there! I am a US citizen that currently resides in AB, Canada. I am applying as a permanent resident (together with my 7 yr old child) through spousal sponsorship. My husband is a permanent resident here in Canada and is the step-dad of my daughter. My questions are:
1. under what class should I apply? Canada class or Family Class? I currently live with my husband, but I have no status yet.
2. I originally put Family class through the PR portal, how do I change that? or do I have to restart my process?
1. under what class should I apply? Canada class or Family Class? I currently live with my husband, but I have no status yet.
-- if you entered Canada within the last 6 months, you are a visitor. You do have status. Extend your stay as visitor before the 6 months is reached. If you don't, you may fall out of status at that point. (other options but I am not going to add in here to confuse you)

Thank you so much for the clarification! I entered within last 6 months and currently on my 4th month. Do you know how I'm able to get a proof of my status (as a visitor)? It is asking me to provide it on the application. I am open to the other option too. Thanks!
Thank you so much for your response! I found out that this is what I initially put: Program under which you are applying
Family Category under which you are applying
Spouse Subcategory under which you are applying
Spouse or common-law partner in Canada class

Your daughter should be applying for a study permit now not a visitor to attend school since she is not the biological child of a Canadian citizen or PR.
