Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by Pyale: 2:22pm On Sep 08, 2022 |
You can only download the relevant forms from within your application portal. The forms are different depending on the different application categories. So please do not download from any other non-IRCC websites. simo4real: 1 Like |

Wow! Thanks for this info. What can I do for my spouse who has already applied for visit without response for 3months? Can I apply for SOWP in parallel or do I need to cancel her visit application before applying for SOWP? Pyale: |

Hello everyone, pls I receive a request letter for my husband biometric receipt this morning.He was refused visiting visa in 2017 which was paper based application and he did biometric then. So when I submitted this application, he did not do biometrics (since validity is 10yrs) .the issue now is we can’t find the receipt and we don’t know the receipt number .. I am thinking we should pay for another one.. |
Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by Pyale: 12:19am On Sep 09, 2022 |
You can apply in parallel and allow IRCC to decide which application to process. Usually, they will cancel your VV application, and process your SOWP application. Good luck! misternaija: 2 Likes |
Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by Pyale: 12:28am On Sep 09, 2022 |
Did you apply using the same account from 2017? If so, can you login and verify that the biometric information is valid until 2027? If you answer yes to the above questions, then write IRCC informing them that your husband's biometric is still valid, and the account/portal is showing that. If no, then follow the instructions in the request letter and do a new biometric. Good luck! Ajoke08: 1 Like 1 Share |

Dele670:The children visa depends on their ages. If they are 5 and above it will be a study permit. Less than 5 can apply for visit |
Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by SweetJJ: 2:40am On Sep 09, 2022 |
misternaija:You don't need to cancel. They are different categories. Go ahead and apply for SOWP. At best, if your eligibility review has not started, you can write them to withdraw the VV application. 1 Like |

Congratulations on this great news….may the rest of the journey be smooth for you and your family� If you don’t mind sharing your email format with me, I will appreciate. I want to send humble email too. Application has been submitted since June SOWP PPR is here!.... Hello house, please rejoice with me as my wife's PPR just dropped. We applied on June 16 2022, review started first week in August and medical was updated to pass on August 8 (did upfront medical). Bvl letter sent on August 17th, and ever since then, no update! Although we were worried why BVL was sent without PPR, we were calm as the application has been processed faster than we expected (65 wks processing time as at the time we submitted in June) But on seeing the message that @Kam3 posted this morning that her/his PPR already dropped, I was motivated to contact IRCC since Kam3 submitted his/her application in July while we submitted June. I immediately wrote an email to IRCC, explaining that we were yet to hear back from them since BVL was sent. I immediately received a confirmation email that I will be responded to in 5 working days. Since it's late here Canada, I was just about going to bed when my wife called that I should check her gmail for an email from IRCC. Lo and behold, PPR message has dropped! That was just like 28 mins after I sent the email to IRCC. 4 Likes |

When a spouse with an open work permit arrives in Canada, do they ask for proof of funds again? |

My people please you guys should help me out ooo... I'm tired of this wait. My spouse is in UK and our application is over 3months meanwhile their processing time is 12weeks, it's like nothing is happening from that office at the moment. Is it advisable for us to withdraw our application and apply through Nairobi because I can see responses are coming within 3months from Nairobi. I don't even know how this is possible because he's based in UK so automatically the application is processed from there. I heard applications since December has not even been updated to medical passed... Mine for over 3months is still same way since the first day we submitted. I fear this might linger for months without response. I have contacted MP, no response, I have sent emails to London, no response... I need advice abeg. |

Hello, I can understand how frustrating it's that processing time has elapsed for your application and you are yet to receive any updates on your application. You ought to have received decision on your application by now considering that the UK has a low processing time of 12 wks. I can see you have made efforts to contact IRCC. If you currently reside in Canada, you may want to call the IRCC helpline to speak to an agent. While it's difficult to get them to answer the phone, I just did a research online, and stumbled on this trick (see attached photos). I guess the 8am in the attached files is in ET (Ontario time zone) Regarding if you should withdraw the application and apply through Nairobi, that would involve your husband relocating to Nigeria from the UK. Although you have exercised a lot of patience already, I would urge you to hold on for a little while. While you wait, keep praying! I hope this helps... Best wishes! khosen:

Good day everyone. I would like to ask some questions concerning completing sowp. My husband is an international student and is in the process of applying for the family. Should he state in the letter that he is engaged with a part time job base on Ircc regulation.To complete the client information for my son who is applying for a study Permit,can we attach his last school result in Nigeria. |

Please don't complicate things for yourself, it's just three months...Canada visa and patience are twins...Besides only very few have fast processing times, some via Nairobi waited for a year plus.. Some months ago visitors visa were processed fast, now its been delayed and SOWP is being processed fast...IRCC are unpredictable so just chill and relax.... khosen: 2 Likes |
