Hello Dimple2001
Thnx. a lot. Now I understood the process. I live in Austin, TX and the closest CIC doctor which my wife and I visited was in San Antonio, TX (90 miles from austin), so I guess before winding up from US, I visit that doctor and complete my new born's medical records and as soon as I land in toronto, start filing my sponsorship application.
In some other forum I read that you need to apply in a special category "ASYLUM" and also when you enter Canada with the baby, you need to get somekind of stamping on the baby's passport, otherwise it would be difficult later on to get PR for the baby...so I was really worried.
Thnx.

Also, my best understanding of medicals is that the child has to use a medical practitioner from the country he/she is a citizen. In this case, it means using the CIC doctor from US (although CIC doctors are present all over the world, as it should be).
Please verify the above statement of mine and other posters carefully, else you will end up doing medicals again.
IF medicals can be done ONLY IN COUNTRY OF CITIZENSHIP. this means all the people who are on work or study permit go back to (India,Pakistan,etc ..) for Medicals ?
Please read the following manual and tell me where does it states that ?

Sukh,
Please read my post about medicals. I have stated, "My best understanding......". I did not say what I said is the absolute fact. Also, I have clearly stated that my statement and other's need to be verified by whoever reads the postings.
So, please spare me the reading of your cic literature. Zorrocrazy007 might have better use for that.

Zorro,
The immigrant visa expires in one year from the date of the medicals. I would do medicals as the final item just before mailing out the package. That way, you have plenty of time.
Sukh has provided a pdf link refuting my statement about medicals. You may want to review that and see if you find something more favorable for your situation.
Also, while entering Canada, you could ask about the "visitor's record" for your child. They may stamp something, maybe.

Zorro,
How old is your kid, last year we moved from kansas to toronto, me and my wife are Canadian, and our kids were american as they were born there,. We called the canadian consulate in TEXAS they sent us the form and we sent them back CIC canada and after 3 months we got their citizenship cards. for kids you dont need medical. when we moved to canada my son was only 2 months old he has only US passport so at the border they gave him 6 month visitor visa and in the mean time we applied for his card and we got it in 2 months or so.
So i will suggest instead of wasting time here just call the candian consulate in texas and tell them that you have a baby and how you can get his PR/citizen card. it too simple... No medical no other stuff, just send in the paper work and you get their cards.

What you say is not true for PR.
Since you are a Cdn citizen, your children were automatically Cdn citizens and hence you submitted application for proof of citizenship and your children received the citizenship cards.
For PR, the child has to be sponsored.
Also, children cannot become citizens unless one of the parent is already a citizen or the citizenship application was made simulataneously for parents and children or the child was born in Canada.
