Hello,
Thank you for sharing your situation and questions with us.
You can find some information regarding this type of sponsorship in our How do I sponsor a spouse, common-law or conjugal partner, or dependent child living outside of Canada? article.
It is important to note the definition of dependent child. Here is an excerpt,
Who is a dependent child?
Note: As of August 1, 2014, a dependent child must be under 19 years old (previously 22), according to Citizenship and Immigration Canada
For sponsorship purposes, a dependent child may be your own child or those of the person you are sponsoring.
According to Citizenship and Immigration Canada, they must:
- Be under the age of 19 and not a spouse or common-law partner; or
- Have depended substantially on the financial support of a parent since before the age of 19 and unable to provide for themselves due to a medical condition.
You can find some information on how your son may be eligible apply to immigrate to Ontario in ourSettlement.Org How can I apply to immigrate to Ontario? article.
I hope this information is helpful. Please let us know if you have further questions and if there is any follow up to your question/situation.
