飞出国：2017年10月24日后加拿大随行子女年龄的定义是 Under 22 也就是不要到22周岁生日，21周岁可以，但过了22周岁就不行了。
当前即使未婚一直在读书，只要达到22周岁就不能做随行子女，如果孩子当前已经20或21周岁那么再去申请加拿大移民基本都要超龄了。
超龄时间点的锁定时间（Lock－in）一般以获得省提名，CSQ或递交完整联邦阶段材料为准。
对于年龄超过21周岁还打算通过父母带子女的，推荐荷兰项目： 荷兰王国库拉索移民，目标欧美，适合中产家庭的多功能移民项目！ 。
Age limit and requirements for dependent children
To qualify as a dependant, your child must be within the age limit and meet the requirements of a dependent child.
Definition of dependent children with new age limit
The age limit of dependent children has changed from “under 19” to “under 22.”
Children qualify as dependants if they meet both of these requirements:
- they’re under 22 years old , and
- they don’t have a spouse or partner
Dependants over the age limit
Children 22 years old or older qualify as dependants if they meet both of these requirements:
- they have depended on their parents for financial support since before the age of 22, and
- they are unable to financially support themselves because of a mental or physical condition
See the previous definitions of dependent children.
How to find out if your child qualifies as a dependant – applications for permanent residence (immigrate)
Follow these two steps to find out if your child qualifies as a dependant:
1. Check the lock-in date for your program or category.
We assess your child’s eligibility as a dependant based on how old they were at a specific point in time, called the lock-in date. To see if your child qualifies as a dependant, we only consider the age of your child on the lock-in date, even though your child’s age may change during processing.
- For most programs, your child’s lock-in date is the date when we receive your complete application for permanent residence.
- Some programs are completed in several steps and your child’s age is locked in before you submit your complete application for permanent residence.
See age lock-in dates by immigration or category.
2. Make sure your child meets the age limit and requirements before including them as a dependant on your application.
See the list of requirements in force for dependants if we received your complete application for permanent residence:
Note: If your child’s age was locked in on or before July 31, 2014, your child must meet the requirements that were in force at that time, regardless of when you submit your application for permanent residence.
Remember, during processing:
- Your child’s age may pass the age limit. We only use the age of your child on the lock-in date to assess your child’s eligibility.
- Your child must continue to meet all the other requirements of the definition of a dependant that applies to your application until we finish processing your application.
You can use our online tool to check if your child qualifies as a dependant by answering a few questions.
Find out if your child is a dependant
See the examples below to better understand how to determine if your child qualifies as a dependant using the lock-in date and the date when we receive the complete application for permanent residence.
Example 1
Lise is applying to sponsor her partner, Juan, and his son Mateo under the spousal sponsorship program. We received Lise’s sponsorship application and Juan and Mateo’s application for permanent residence on November 1, 2017. On that date, Mateo was 19 years old, and single (he was not married and not in a common-law relationship).
Based on this scenario:
- Lock-in date for Mateo’s age is November 1, 2017. For the spousal sponsorship program, we use the date when we receive the complete application for permanent residence as the lock-in date.
- On lock-in date, Mateo is 19 years old. This is the age we’ll use to determine his eligibility.
- On the date we received the application for permanent residence, the definition of a dependent child was the one that came into force on October 24, 2017.
Mateo qualifies as a dependant because:
- his age (19 years old) on the lock-in date (November 1, 2017), is within the age limit that was in force when we received his application for permanent residence, and
- Mateo meets the other requirements of the definition (he is not married or in a common-law relationship)
If, during processing, Mateo’s marital status changes, he could become ineligible to immigrate to Canada with his father.
Example 2
Tobogo wants to immigrate to Alberta with his daughter Lailah under the Provincial Nominee Program. The province of Alberta received Tobogo’s complete provincial nomination application on July 17, 2016. On that date, Lailah was 21.
Based on this scenario:
- Lock-in date for Lailah’s age is July 17, 2016. For the Provincial Nominee Program, we use the date when the province or territory receives the complete provincial nominee application as the lock-in date.
- On the lock-in date, Lailah is 21 years old. This is the age we’ll use to determine her eligibility, regardless if her age changes during processing.
- The age limit that was in force when we received Tobogo’s application for permanent residence was “under 19.”
- On October 24, 2017, the age limit for dependants was changed to “under 22.”
Lailah qualifies as a dependant because:
- Though her age (21 years old) on the lock-in date (July 17, 2016) was above the age limit that was in force when we received Tobogo’s application for permanent residence, her age is within the new age limit that came into force on October 24, 2017.
- Lailah meets the other requirements of the definition (she is not married or in a common-law relationship).
- When Tobogo submitted his application for permanent residence, he did not include Lailah as an accompanying dependant since her age on lock-in date was over the age limit.
- Tobogo can now add Lailah to his pending application as an accompanying dependant because we have a Public Policy in place to allow qualifying dependants such as Lailah to be added to existing applications.
- Tobogo can also sponsor Lailah when he becomes a permanent resident. Our Public Policy allows for qualifying dependants such as Lailah to be sponsored even if they are over the age limit.
- To add Lailah to his application as an accompanying dependant, or to sponsor Lailah, Tobogo will have to notify us by January 31, 2018.
