a Canadian travel document was previously issued to the child in his or her name; and
the parents or legal guardians who participated in the previous application are the same ones participating in this current application.
Custody, separation or divorce
When a court order or agreement exists referring to custody of the child, only the person with custodial rights may apply. All documents
