Q: how can i give my baby canadian citizenship?

I am a Canadian who has lived in China nearly ten years.  My Chinese wife will have a child next summer and i want to get Canadian citizenship for the child.  Is it just as simple as filling out an application and sending it to the Beijing embassy?

 i inquired and received a general answer so i was looking for a second opinion.  I didn't know it was 'farcical' to search for specific details, or particular documents in matters concerning family.

i had received very insightful information regarding passport and other procedures.  the info just branched off from my original inquiry which was citizenship onto passports, then childhood education.

Yes, its easy as 123, after the baby is born the doctor will give you the birth form and you will see two small boxes saying: Chinese or Foreigner, select the one you wish, but you'll have to be fast and get your baby setup with a passport, may even have to take the baby home and get the Q visa ready or ask your company to setup the dependent visa  ASAP.

I've heard i need to submit an application for proof of citizenship to the Canadian embassy.  and this takes several months.  after that, i can get the passport.   Is this correct?  In terms of visa, i have been informed i can put the child's name with mine on the police resident form when i renew a yearly contract with my university.  

 

When you say i must be fast, what is the time limit for arranging these docs and repercussions for not doing so?  

 

Much obliged

 

Much appreciated.

A: "... through ..."?  Only "through" comes to mind is "Shenzhen agent can connect you with an employer, who's authorized to hire waigouren ... and can sponsor Z visa." It's not like every 10th person you meet in Shenzhen's hood can sponsor work visa ...  The only way to change from student to labourer visa is just a regular way by: 1. Finding an employer, who'll apply for an Invitation letter; 2. Exit China and apply for Z visa in your home country's Chinese embassy; 3. Enter China in 30-days after Z visa was stamped into your travelling instrument ...As I am aware, you won't be able to switch to Working permit by remaining in China....,so make ready for a return to your home .... -- icnif77
