倒數兩星期！19-22歲子女可加入處理中的移民申請案

2017年除了公民申請資格的重大變革外, 另外一個就是Dependent Child的年齡自Oct/24/2017又從19歲放寬到22歲。但這下之前因為小孩介於19-22歲之間而被排除的移民申請人不就跳腳了!?沒錯, 所以IRCC推出了一個暫時的措施, 允許PR申請人將送件時已滿19歲但未滿22歲的小孩加入目前正在審查中的PR申請案, 一併審查.
這對於甚麼人影響最大呢?

1. 技術移民或是投資移民申請案

主申請人有19-22歲之間的子女, 在舊規定下, 該名子女是不能列在申請案中的, 必須以後靠自己的方式申請移民. 如果另有一名未滿19歲的子女已在申請案中, 就會出現怪異的現象:全家只有一個人不是PR, 無法一起搬到加拿大同住, 且還會埋下可能的家庭紛爭!

2. 依親移民申請案

擔保人為公民, 正申請擔保其配偶, 配偶有一名19-22歲之間的子女, 舊規定下是不能一起被擔保成為PR, 必須要靠自己申請其他移民類別. 這樣一旦申請通過, 則該子女無法一同來加拿大。


有意願將符合資格的子女加入目前審查的申請案中的申請人必須在Jan/31/2108以前向IRCC表達意願.  詳細規定如下：

May/3/2017 ~ Oct/23/2017中, 如果該子女的父母有正在審查中(in process)或已經申請(applied)的移民申請案, 可以透過簡單的問卷依照移民申請的類別, 申請的時間點, 子女的年齡, 主申請人在加拿大的身分等等來判斷是否符合這項暫時性措施的要求, 將該子女加入申請案中
