Hi everyone.
I lived in the Philippines and got married recently. I found out Im pregnant and would like to give birth in canada.
1) My question is should I mention to the application letter than I am pregnant? Will this speed up the process. I was hoping my husband would be here when I give birth.
2) Can he apply for a visitor visa while waiting for his PR? I heard that there is a possibility that he will get denied.
1) Yes - you can certainly mention your pregnancy. No - it won't speed up the process.
2) Yes - your husband can certainly apply for a visitor visa. Yes - there is a good chance he will be refused since CIC will know he has plans to remain in Canada long term. However you can certainly give it a try and hopefully you'll get lucky.
Just incase he gets denied for a visit visa.
Another option:
Do you think that its better to give birth here in the Philippines? Since I am a canadian citizen my child will automatically be a canadian citizen. I can request for canadian certificate for my baby and at same time sponsor my husband?
Or is that too complicated?
Its our first baby I would really want my husband to be there with me.
In you case it doesn't matter...your child will be Canadian Citizen...
but if for example you have a daughter... and she decides to have her baby
outside Canada, then her baby will not be a Canadian Citizen....
Will be Canadian Citizen only if your daughter has her baby in Canada...
That would be one of the limitations of your decision now....
I believe that your husband can get Visa to be with you when your baby is born...
But will depend on the visa officer...
Spouses are meant to be together...
and pregnancy is a very special time for a spouse to be together...
You may try to apply for a tourist visa for your husband... and indicate that
you are applying for her Permanent Residence...
and if it is granted you may travel together... It is worth to try....
and then apply outland.. because in land takes forever.... and you don't want to be there....
We had a similar choice and chose to definitely have the baby in Canada. Boy OR girl, if born outside of Canada then their citizenship doesn't automatically pass to their children unless they themselves are born in Canada. One other small factor, one of us was concerned that circumcision at birth seemed not be a common practice or popular choice in the Philippines.
There is already a high chance of getting a TRV a rejection on account you are married to him. He would have had a better chance of getting a TRV when he was your fiancée since he is considered "single". As others have said, you can give it a go and try but don't be disappointed if it came be negative.

To clarify what Awesomeg said...yes your baby would be a Canadian citizen if you do decide to give bith in the Philippines (as long as you meet the criteria) but you do still need to apply for a certificate of citizenship for him/her which is pretty straightforward. We did the same for our daughter and they told us it could take up to 15 months but actually only took 3. You can then apply for a passport afterwards. However, having the baby in Canada might make life easier!
My name is Jarnel Singh, my wife's name is Priyanka and she lives in Canada. She is pregnant and her delivery date is 28th August and I have filed my visitor visa in which my refusal And now I have submitted the reconstruction form so that my visa can be approved

So what is your question to a 10 year post. Reconsideration is for an error in law so IRCC may or may not reopen your file. There are no timelines for reconsideration. Expect at least 30 days to even look at file. If married to PR/citizen then should apply for spousal sponsorship. Having a pregnant spouse is not a reason for reconsideration nor speeding up the process.
