New Born outside Canada for PR approved residents (not Canadian Passport Holders)

[FJK1982]

All - I am starting this thread for the people who received their PR cards and living outside Canada and have a new born or expecting the baby which they are considering to deliver outside Canada, just to know the cons and prons & challenges they are facing / will face if they deliver outside Canada, what is their plan and how they will let the baby in Canada, what is the timeline and all that stuff, people please join here.

The baby can enter Canada as a visitor so you can sponsor them for PR. As a PR you must be in Canada to begin the process. The obvious con of this is that the baby will not automatically be a Canadian citizen, unlike if they were born in Canada.

Thanks dear for your input, i understand that there is a possibility of visitor visa rejection, and i am also not sure how long it will take to get the baby PR once i will apply, if it takes more than 6 months mean i have to travel exit canada with the baby and come back again...so just looking for some real examples or people facing this scenario.

The process takes around a year. You would have to apply to extend the baby's status as a visitor past six months which can be done inside of Canada.
