Subject: Undeclared dependents
  At the port entry, the immigration officer interviewed us and ask if we have other dependents aside from what was declared in our application. I denied the fact that I have other child with other woman here in Canada, as my wife (common law status) was the principal applicant. Until now my wife doesn´t know this fact, my concern is if my case of undeclaring other dependents considered as misrepresentation? can this be resulted to my deportation in near future? Plase advise, what should I do. Thanks.

yes, it is considered misrepresentation. If found out, you could be deported. I suggest that is the lesser of your current problems. You have also lied to your partner.

So, not sure which will be harder - explaining the child or explaining why you lied.

What should you do???? Asking that question is a little late.

To Sharon, yes I admit I lied to her thats why I´m so botherred & can´t sleep at night. Because I know my stupidity may affect her status here in Canada. I felt so guilty, but can´t tell her the truth because I afraid to loss her. So there´s no way I can appeal it to cic? I´m thinking why they ask this too personal & confidential question? what if I choose not to declare it at all? isn´t it my right as private person.

If the child was a foreigner and need to be medically assessed and had a major illness an serious error could have happened by granting you and your real wife status.

The medical issue of a Canadian is a non issue.

You´re still a ...............

Nene,
"what if I choose not to declare it at all? isnīt it my right as private person".

You can´t be serious? it is a background declaration check you genious. That´s WHY you have to declare them.

Kellogg,

You should no better, whether the kid is Canadian or not, he still have to declare it. IT IS THE LAW.

That is why iT says very clearly, you have to declare a child whether is coming or not to Canada. The medical examination is one thing. The declaration form is very clear.

He even has to sign on it declaring that he does not or does have a child. It doesn´t say whether the child is Canadian or not. IT SAYS THAT YOU HAVE TO DECLARE IT! PERIOD.

Now going back to the main issue. Yes! it is called misrepresentation and you can be charged under the act. The officer may write a 44(a)1 report based on misrepresentation and CIC can come after your Permanent Resident status.

What are you going appeal? There is no case here. You are a lier and liers get caught. Whether is going to be by your spouse or the federal government.

It is matter of time.

Yesterday was a really happy day when my regulatory body was replaced. I just could not call anyone (a smuck) on such a happy day.

Everyone lies!

IRPA

40. (1) A permanent resident or a foreign national is inadmissible for misrepresentation
(a) for directly or indirectly misrepresenting or withholding material facts relating to a relevant matter that induces or could induce an error in the administration of this Act;

Any male who has had unprotected sexual intercourse by withholding that fact could have created a child. Who knows maybe the biological mother of this child lied as well and the child is not his, just a thought.

Real hard to prove that he knew the child was his. He lied more than once on real important issues and getting him found described may not be worth the effort.

Who is for telling his wife?

I remember a wife who cut off her husbands penus in Mississauga then drove from the home and threw it out the car window.

An undeclared biological child residing in Canada.

How will it affect his situation?

if he lies about 1 thing (a big thing) what is to say he did not misrepresent other facts in his application?

Does he really think that his current partner is not going to find out? Women find out EVERYTHING!

No no no. Criminology 101 Look at the entire picture.

He has a child with another woman in Canada. If he lied in the family declaration, likely he did in his background declaration where he has to declare everything since the age of 18. It is just as simple as a child? Or there was an actual relationship that wasn´t declared? At that point he could have been called in for an interview so the officer gets to make the call if declaring the child was or not relevant for his application but NOOOO he lied in the application, I am pretty sure he lied in the background declaration and he lied to the CBSA officer at the POE when he landed.

If it is not such a big deal according to you Roy, what would have been the result if he had declared the child at the POE? Likely he would have been refused based on misrepresentation.

Whether is a relevant piece of information or not, by law he had to declare the child. There is not any segment in the Immigration act that you are exempt of declaring a child if born in Canada.

I yet have to see someone successfully been able to hide a child from someone else. Very stupid thing to do and the worse is that the poor child gets to pay for the irresponsability of his father.

Having unprotected sex and not knowing that a person is a father is one thing. Knowing about and prentending that isn´t true and lying to a parner and in a federal application is a different story.

He is going to get in trouble, it is just matter of time.
