PPR Alert!!!
OWP Application submitted July 7th
Passport request: August 10, 2022

I initially applied for a tourist visa on February 19th because of the short processing time as of then. When there was no response, I had to apply for SOWP on July 7th and PPR on August 10th few days after my birthday.

From personal experience, Abuja returned stamped passport within 1 week, while Lagos took 3 weeks.

Good luck!

who decides which one is withdrawn? IRCC or the Applicant? Or would IRCC write to you to ask which is your preference in the case they receive a work permit application then a study visa application some months down the line from the same applicant?
@justwise @technix @goingforward @justmellow and other gurus in the house please respond

impeccablerose:


SOWP, VV and Study permit are all temporary visas (same intent) so if you apply for all 3 or 2 of them at the same time, one might be withdrawn for the other. Hence its not advisable.
Express entry is for PR application (a different intent).
You can have a PR application and a temporary visa application being processed at the same time (dual intent) but not two or more temporary visa applications.

Hello MumTee,

IRCC will not send any notification. The most recent application in processing will be finalized. On a side note, either a work permit or study permit can be approved along with a visitor's visa.


Success is all I wish You!

I would suggest you both should arrive Canada first then use an immigration lawyer to argue out why you want to drop and rather apply for SOWP inland, you can as well do the application yourself if you are sure you can logically argue your case.
Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by jogazino: 8:43am On Aug 15, 2022
You attached the acceptance of the parent who is on study.

Good day, all.

I would like to confirm the immigration process at the airport with those that enter Canada with SOWP. Will they issue me an Open work permit at the airport?

Secondly, do I need to buy a one-way ticket when coming to Canada?

Please help.

Thank you.
Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by SoteriaMo: 1:43am On Aug 16, 2022
Yes, you will be issued your work permit at point of entry in the airport.
And one way ticket is perfect!

Hello Bisola.
Hubby's stamped passport was returned within a week. Courtesy, Abuja vsf
The email address includes:
nrobi-im-enquiry@international.gc.ca
nairobi@international.gc.ca
nrobi-immigration@international.gc.ca lagos.immigration@international.gc.ca
ABUJA-IM-Enquiry@international.gc.ca

However, it was the third one that got back with a reply, and attached the PPR. The reply came at almost the same time with the famous DO NOT REPLY email though.
I guess that was when they were finally ready for us.
Goodluck

Hello Everyone
Please i need some clarifications.I submitted my application on the 26th of July 2022,did an upfront medicals on the 4th of this month..Yesterday the Review of my medical started and today i got a Medical request from IRCC.Please gurus in the house what's the best way to address this?
Thanks.
Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by folla: 12:45pm On Aug 16, 2022
@Bobsyga

I suggest you send a webform and an email to IRCC informing them that you had undergone a medical examination already. Attach your e-medical sheet to the webform and the email.

You could also go to the hospital that conducted the examination to confirm that your results have indeed been sent to IRCC.

Good luck!

Good day,

Would my 5-years old who applied for a study permit needs a medical examination?

If yes, can I do upfront medical or I have to receive IRCC MEDICAL REQUEST FORM first?
