Lastly, as regards the new development for Visit visa(decision takes btw 14 and 30days), I went through it and observed 1. I need to be fully vaccinated 2. I need to write and confirm from IRCC if I am qualified Since this is faster, I want to give it a try. Besides 1&2 what other things are required of me? Pls help a brother so I can have a good knowledge of it or stick to my SOWP. @Sam4774, @Lianna2020 et al. sam4774: 1 Like |

Hi, this fully vaccinated thing isnt that big a deal to be honest and anything that is making you have a sowp in progress means that you have a spouse in Canada therefore you are qualified for this. please dont waste your time emailing IRCC they love to discourage people. This IRCC race only favours the brave, people that act quick once they see and confirm information from IRCC. please apply for your visit visa use the exact documents you used for SOWP except more recent bank details and also an updated letter of intent. please do the excemption thing afterwards to draw their attention to your application quicker. SOWP is saying 58 weeks so please attain your visit visa and go and flagpole the SOWP in Canada! goodluck and God will make it easy for you in Jesus name Safetysmile: 2 Likes 1 Share |

Let me first start by saying e jor i didn't advise anybody we are all adults, i answered the persons question. nobody should hold me accountable for what happens to them. However they are both temporary permit applications and dual intent is when you apply for 2 different classes of applications. they are both same class and you are expected to leave at the end of both of these applications.Finally me sef i did it waiting for a decision i will let you know how it goes when i get it. SOWP is reading 58 weeks to get a decision, i will not spend Christmas away from my spouse and waiting for IRCC to answer that SOWP will amount to that. Erudensi: 3 Likes 1 Share |

Yes I called their client support center last week and the guy that answered was telling me that the processing times are not accurate at all cause they are just a mess. So as we speak he cannot give me a timeframe. Anndav: |

Visitor visas', 133days and not 14-30days? Someone pls help my understanding, I have this week to decide and submit an application (SOWP or Visitor visa)... @sam4774

Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by lightswitch007: 7:47am On Nov 29, 2021 |
Safetysmile:TBH You are to make the decision yourself. SOWP is 87 weeks or so, Visitor's visa is 14-30 working days or more. SOWP with TRV applications are processed faster unlike single SOWP applications. Just so you know processing time is not accurate for now. |
Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by Safetysmile: 10:08am On Nov 29, 2021 |
Sorry pls I'm learning wat is TBH & TRV I read that the 14-30days visitor visa is for applicants that their immediate families have PR or under Indian Act status. Thanks for responding. lightswitch007: |

Noted with thanks. What about my observation as regards visitor visas, I read that 14-30days is for people that are traveling to meet immediate family with PR or India Act Status. Or does it include SP residents too? @ lightwitch007 @sam4774 @babybless44 and anyone with answer pls. babybless44: 1 Like |

NEW TREND ALERT Hello, If you are applying with children who have American or other dual-citizenship that allows them travel to Canada visa free, (and you are applying for family visas from Nigeria), please ensure their foreign passport(s) are current and available to travel when the time comes. A recent pattern observed is that IRCC is no longer issuing PPR for such category of applicants. Instead they get approval straight while other family members with only Nigerian citizenship get PPR. The application process remains the same, and the suggested passport to use for this is still the Nigerian one but make sure the other one (scanned copy often included in their client info) remains valid. Although the approval/correspondence letter always says American citizens don't need a passport to travel to Canada, that is ONLY if you are traveling from the US to Canada. No Nigerian, airline or custom officers will allow you travel with just that letter or other documents apart from a passport. Finally, it is also possible to not include them as applicants in your family application except just having them as part of the family information, as long as they have valid US/eligible passports to travel visa free to Canada. I prefer to add them if you are in that situation because it is not impossible that their profile could help the fortune of other family members' application. Just a theory though. Best of luck and it shall always end in praises!! 3 Likes |

Safetysmile:Those who want to "unite with an immediate family member who is in Canada temporarily" can also apply on the new portal. Follow the link https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/visit-canada/apply-visitor-visa.html |

Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by lightswitch007: 2:23am On Nov 30, 2021 |
Cynk: Since you've filed your SOWP and TRV applications together, you just have to wait for an update. From the success stories of applicants on the group, joint applications (SOWP & TRV) gets process faster compared to applying SOWP alone. Please Note check your GCkey often for updates. You may not get an email update from IRCC for changes in your application. |
