# Canada Visa for Persons Wishing to Enter Canada for the Purpose of Giving Birth
Giving birth in Canada does not violate any terms that may be applied to a temporary resident. A temporary resident visa (TRV) cannot be refused solely on the grounds of the applicant’s intent to give birth in Canada.

## **How to Apply for a Canadian Temporary Resident Visa: for the purpose of giving birth**
The requirements for giving birth in Canada by non-citizens are not much, the most important thing is to get your Temporary Resident Visa which will give you access into Canada. While applying for the TRV, you must indicate that you are pregnant and you want to give birth in Canada.
## **What Is the Meaning of Birth Tourism and Is It Legal in Canada?**
The act of travelling to another country to give birth and, as a result, getting citizenship for the child, even if the parents are neither residents nor citizens, is known as baby or birth tourism. Only a few developed countries allow this and Canada is one of them. Therefore, it is completely legal in Canada.
## **What Is the Visa for Giving Birth in Canada?**
The visa for women to give birth in Canada is a simple Temporary Resident Visa (TRV). There are no differences in the procedures or what is allowed, except for the fact that the woman might or will be giving birth in Canada.
## **Benefits of Giving Birth in Canada**
When you give birth to a child in Canada, whether you are a Canadian citizen/permanent resident or not, that child is automatically a Canadian citizen.
Some other benefits of giving birth in Canada include the right to live in Canada or travel to Canada without a permit or visa, and the right to receive and enjoy benefits such as free healthcare, free education, and free social benefits that Canadian citizens enjoy.
There is no special privilege given to a parent who wants Canadian permanent residence after giving birth in Canada as a non-resident. However, if you want to live in Canada after your childbirth, you must get your temporary resident visa like a visitor, student, or worker, provided you are eligible to receive it.
Moreover, many mothers after giving birth in Canada as foreigners return to their home countries with the knowledge that their child will return to Canada to study and work as Canadian citizens with full rights.
## **What Happens to a Child Born in Canada to Foreign Parents?**
If a child is born in Canada, that child automatically receives Canadian citizenship. Even in a situation where the child is born to parents who are not Canadian citizens or permanent residents, the child automatically becomes a Canadian Citizen.
## **What Are the Visa Eligibility Criteria for Giving Birth in Canada for Non-residents?**
In order to give birth in Canada, an individual will need to obtain a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV). This visa is usually valid for 6 months or less.
The TRV allows the individual who is pregnant to come to Canada to visit family and friends, as well as go to the hospital and seek assistance in giving birth.
However, the visa does not allow the woman to claim medical or social benefits accorded to Canadian citizens and permanent residents. It also does not allow the woman to stay permanently in Canada or apply for citizenship, or try to apply for Canadian-issued documents.
## **What Are the Documents Required for the Canada Visa for Giving Birth?**
The documents required for the Canada Visa to Give Birth include a valid passport, a clean criminal history with court documents to prove it, proof of payment for visa application and processing fees, copies of the woman's current immigration status in another country or in Canada, proof of having enough funds to stay in Canada, and biometric information if necessary.
If the woman does not meet these requirements, the Canadian Consulate will require further proof and allow the woman a chance to submit more documents to convince them that they should give her a visa.
## **How to Apply for the Visa for Giving Birth in Canada?**
Applying for the Visa to Give Birth in Canada is the same process as applying for a Visitor Visa or Temporary Resident Visa (TRV). The woman who will be giving birth must be at least 18 years old, have the required documentation to apply, be ready to pay the application and processing fees, have enough funds to cover her hospital stay and general stay in Canada, be prepared to partake in a medical examination, and be prepared to attend an interview or provide biometric information if necessary.
The woman must also prove she does not plan to work or study in Canada during her stay. If the woman does not meet the application requirements, the Canadian Consulate will require further proof and allow the woman a chance to submit more documents to convince them that they should give her a visa.
## **What Are the Fees for This Visa to Give Birth in Canada?**
The cost of giving birth in Canada for non-residents depends on many factors. The average cost of giving birth in Canada with a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) ranges from CAD$5,000 to CAD$20,000 CAD.
This price depends on the province you decide to have your child in, the medical facility you choose to handle the health care, and the type of delivery (birthing method).
## **What Is the Processing Time for This Visa?**
The processing time for a Canada Birth Visa depends on the workload the Consulate has. You may wait from one week to around 5 or 6 weeks for the visa to get processed. As soon as you plan to give birth, apply.
## **How Long Is This Visa Valid?**
Like all the Temporary Canada Visas, you may only stay for up to six months. The Consulate could give you a visa for a longer time. In some rare cases until your passport expires. But in any case, you may not stay in Canada for more than 6 months at a time.
## **Can I Bring My Dependents to Canada With This Visa?**
The Canada birth visa is a temporary one, so you cannot bring your spouse or children to Canada.
However, they can apply for the Tourist Visa. You could submit all the applications together and the Consulate will process you as a family.

## See What Our Clients Are Experiencing
**My Visa Source** made the process of my partner’s PR a breeze. We did run into an issue in the beginning as my partner initially started his PR progress with the intent of going through his work to get his PR. There were some difficulties that ended up leading us into doing his **PR through common-law sponsorship**, which ended up being a blessing in disguise as we were appointed a new Lawyer & team.
Harley Jensen was very much on top of everything from quick replies to our emails and if we ran into any difficulties she would always set up a phone call to ease us through the process. There was another lovely lawyer by the name Natasha who was also helping us through some difficulties.
Overall My Visa Source made us feel confident and at ease during this very stressful process. We would like to thank the team for all their hard work. I would definitely recommend them.

Sharing my experience with **MVS**. This firm has truly reliable and dependable professionals, no wonder it has won so many awards and accolades. After my initial spouse work permit rejection, I approached MVS and I was assured they’d handle my case sensitively. Bara was very calm and informative, he initiated my process. My wife’s permit case was assigned to Sharon and Marc. ‘Sharon’ is very knowledgeable and precise, she was always reachable and was prompt on her responses during the process. Her follow ups on every step was phenomenal. Such a gem! I blindly recommend her.
Marc on the other hand was the heart of the process, shout out to him as well..
All my stress was washed out as every actions performed by them was promising. I was optimistic and finally **received the permits, now I can reunite with my family in coming days.**
Couldn’t praise enough. Wish you best to unite and bring happiness to more families like ours.
I wish to personally meet you all one day to thank for what you’ve done. You’ve changed my life.

I've had a very bad experience with an immigration lawyer at another firm in the past, and I was very scare to experience that again. I found **My Visa Source** online and decided to give them a try because of their great reviews, and I don't regret it for a second!. Amazing experience, they really treated me like a human being and were very upfront and organized with all information.
Angel Pavlou is really an angel, very sweet and helpful, she help us a lot on our first stage of the process with the firm. She is an amazing human being!
Because we were **applying through common-in-law sponsorship**, my team was Harley and Natasha, an amazing team! We worked for about 4-5 month on the file to make sure everything needed was there. And even though they usually respond within 2-3 business days, by the last portion before submission, our emails were responded by the minute, which we really appreciate as it helped to speed up the process significantly.
Even though our contract with the firm ended with the submission of our application, they left the door open for further questions we may have about what's coming next with our application, which is a big support for us, and we really appreciate (as now we have a long road ahead before a final answer from IRCC comes).
Thanks Team! :)

At first I was a bit wary because we had some challenges with **our spousal sponsorship case** and all correspondence was done over the phone or email, but now that my husband has been approved, I can say with confidence I would hire **My Visa ****Source** again for any immigration needs. My husband was not even asked for an interview in the end. This firm works many different nationalities and passport holders and there experience is vast.

After previously going to another immigration service it became glaringly obvious how great this service was. Angel was able to answer all my questions and share with me some options that I had not been told of by the other lawyer. I highly recommend this service.

This was a free consult call. I received the call exactly at the time arranged. Irfhan was very helpful, honest and informative. Unfortunately there weren’t many options for my case and he made no false promises. His integrity was impeccable and even though there wasn’t much that could be done he did offer some great suggestions and advice.

Canada is home to major Hollywood production centers and has justifiably earned the moniker “Hollywood North”. The City of Toronto’s screen-base industry’s direct expenditures are third behind none other than Los Angeles and New York City.
Why Film in Canada?
Production companies and studios can take advantage of generous Canadian federal and provincial tax credit and incentive programs, provided the labour based criteria is met.
The Federal Government offers a refundable federal tax credit on the qualifying labour paid to Canadian residents. Having the ability to combine federal and provincial credits, the range can increase substantially and further incentives on eligible local spend are also available.",
