Thank you for your concern.
It's just the uncertainty of Accra and how long it will take to add the baby.

We've waited so long for this PPR, the timing is just off. I've heard of families that have been waiting for close to a year, just to add their baby.

I was in your shoes and added my babies in May 2020 after PPR had been issued. My sister we are still waiting for another PPR to be issued. this is almost 2 years, not even a re-medical request has been sent.

My suggestion will be for you to get your passport stamped as soon as possible,
if you can make it to Canada before delivery that would be great. (it wont be easy sha considering your state but i am sure it will be worth the stress so you can just have your baby in Canada).

if you cant get your passport stamped before delivery, you can have your baby in Nigeria. when you are stronger and much settled look for a way to finally land with your baby probably by getting a visitors visa then file for your baby's PR after landing in Canada.

That adding a new baby to your profile now is a complete no no for me except of course you don't mind the long wait before another PPR is reissued.

my 2 cent.

Good day everyone please I am at a cross road and will appreciate the advice from experts on what to do.

My husband and I got our AOR for our Canadian PR in December 2019.
We started the long wait to PPR, and in April 2020, we gave birth to a set of twins.

We were advised to quickly add them to our application so as to ensure PPR comes for all of us at once, and we did just that.

IRCC requested we fill some forms, pay the application fees for the kids and also update our POF of which we did as requested. All these happened in May 2020.

From then up until last week we didn’t receive any communication from IRCC with regards our application.

We called quite a number of times, and we're told that all was fine with our application, that we only needed to wait. We also requested GCMS twice within the period.

We very recently requested for a GCMS note, and the most recent update to our application was "acknowledgement of the receipt of the application fees for our kids". That was done in March 2021. We assume this means our POF has not been looked at, since apparently they didn’t do anything to our application all the while.

The challenge now is in the fact that due to exchange rate fluctuations, our POF no longer meets the required threshold, the current exchange rate requires we top up with an additional 1 Million plus to meet the threshold, and we have also spent a portion of the initial proof of funds with the hope the ADR would not be requested.

We are at a crossroads as to what to do right now.
We are thinking of removing the money we currently have left from our Naira account which was used as POF initially, convert it to dollars and put it in our DOM account. We also want to source for the balance of the POF, and add it to the DOM account and do a new account statement for upload to IRCC with a letter of explanation indicating that we had to take these actions due to currency fluctuations in our country.

If we do this,
Would we need a gift deed for the portion of the POF we are sourcing for?
Would the fact that we are changing accounts be detrimental to our application?
Would the fact that we had initially spent a portion of the Proof of funds hamper our application in anyway as that would be apparent from the new account statement?

I look forward to your advice thanks.
