From the posts, it appears that if i were to apply for my baby's sponsorship after lets say 3 months of continuos presence in Canada, and show them salary data for those 3 months, then maybe i could get the sponsorship apporved - right?!
Past years pay data from another country might not be of any help 
Btw, Any idea how long it takes to get the sponsorship process done ? CIC site says - about one month, massodji gives 3- 6 months.. can we safely assume that 6 months would be enough if there are no complications?
thanks for your thoughts & inputs!

Firstly please check with a Canadian Embassy / Consulate near you on how you can bring your baby to Canada. It may be possible, as indicated in my post above, to take your baby with you to Canada after getting him a visit visa or a temporary resident permit.
Next, as soon as you reach Canada (with or without your baby as your choice may be) call the CIC's helpline:
1 888 242-2100
They will guide you as to the procedure you need to follow to sponsor your baby to be a permanent resident. You should not need to be resident for any amount of time nor should you need an income to sponsor your natural baby.

If a child is born to a PR out of Canada, the PR parents must return to Canada and sponsor the child.
The child can be brought to Canada with the parents and a Canadian mission abroad can issue a 'Temporary Resident Permit' to allow the child to accompany the parents back to Canada. This is however, at the discretion of the mission.
Once the PR is back in Canada and demonstrates residency in Canada (rents an apartment, has a local phone number, bank account, has a job), he or she can apply to sponsor the child.
This sponsorship can be done two ways. One in a 'Humanitarian and Compassionate Application' for PR. This application can be made to the CIC Mississauga office. This way could take upto two years.
Another way is to apply to the Canadian Immigration mission responsible for the country of Citizenship of the child. This way could take upto the time indicated for application of PR at that mission.
In both cases the 'Temporary Resident Permit' that has been issued to the child must be kept valid by applying for another one before it expires.
It's best to check with a Canadian Embassy / High Commission near to you or if in Canada, with the CIC directly on their toll free number:
1 888 242-2100

Thanks for the reply
Guess if thats the time involved than there will be a issue for the Health Insurance. Secondly leaving the discretion to the embassy keeps the matter open and dicey...what happens incase the embassy refuses a temporary visa
Hello everyone,
I am in a similar situation. I am a PR currently work in Bahrain, and planning to move permanently to Toronto.
When I applied for Temporary Visit visa for my son, it was rejected. The Canadian Embassy in Abu Dhabi wants me to prove that both parents are actually moving to canada. They will not issue Visit visa for my son, unless we cancel the residency visa for Bahrain. Also, the issue of Visit visa will take 3 - 4 weeks (as it required medical to be done)
The Canadain Embassy needs the following documents;
a) Copy of resignation Letter b) Copy of acceptance letter c) Copy of One Way ticket d) Copy of Bill of Lading e) Passport copies hosiwng canceled vosa e) Letter from Compnay that all visas have been cancelled f) Copy of Final Settlement g) Copy of Bank Statement indicationg Bank account closure.
I hope this information will be helpful for people working in Middle East
Cheers,

To be exact the visa to be applied for is a 'Temporary Resident Permit'
If you apply for a Temporary Resident Visa they may reject it and may ask you to apply for a Temporary Resident Permit. You will then loose the money you paid for applying for the Temporary Resident Visa.
I write from personal experience with the Canadian Embassy in Abu Dhabi in July 2005
