Children above 5 years apply Study visa based on their mother visa right??
Children do not need enrol in canada school before applying stueent visa to visit mother a student in canada?

Yes enrollment is not compulsory because the school will want to see the children before admission confirmation but what many do is to notify the school board and write same in their application that they have enrolled their children quoting the officers name that attended to them

My wife arrived Canada last December  due to CBu housing issues I decided to applied to another university for her .
all schools in Alberta alrealy closed admission for may so next option is fall (September)
Her study permit expired in December, will I be able to renew study permit extension if she start school in fall ?
Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by lizzygurl: 1:31pm On Jan 19, 2023
Yes, she will be able to extend her study permit in September. She might just need to submit her application immediately the semester starts.

But I don't know if it applies to her case since you said she's already in Canada.

Restricted:

Make sure you have enough money as POF to cover the whole family plus miscellaneous. You really dont need your wife's account in Canada. They want to see you are well established here in Nigeria (economic ties and family ties) and you have reasons to come back after her studies. The kids aged 14, 11, 7 should be study visa while the 2yr old should be visiting. You should have applied like yesterday already so dont delay the application further.

Best of luck to you and your family.

Thank you I really appreciate

letsfarmnigeria:


Mail them again with the proof of payment, and address they are suppose to return it to, you can also check their website for phone no to call as follow up, this reply maybe a miscommunication, I have someone who did not pay for the return they asked they the person to pay and email proof of payment and that was how it was resolved this happened Dec 2022

This is a very tight situation because normally once they dispatch they are supposed to send you an acknowledgement mail which bears your decision envelope no it's that no that you are to use and track the mail but as it's now your best option since you are not close to their office is to keep sending email asking them which courier has it and the no so you can track it from the couriers website don't loose hope just believe and send them mails explain this situation in the mail

Kranjar:
Hi guys, thumbs up for the support rendered on this platform. Please I need information on how I can get the property valuation document as I intend to apply for the sowp later in the year. I reside in Anambra and so will appreciate the contact of a certified estate valuer especially from those that have submitted the valuation report. Thanks.

Since you are both applying together, use his gckey. He will come across a question asking if his spouse is accompanying him, his answer should be yes.
Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by merciee: 10:56pm On Jan 20, 2023

Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by Hezy: 8:38am On Jan 22, 2023
Good day house,
Thanks to everyone for the good work here. I am a returnee here.
Please, I have already arrived in Canada last Month for study and I want to apply for open work permit for my wife and study permit for my kids. I used an agent for my own application, but with the information I am seeing here, I believe that I can do it by myself now.
In this case;
1. Will I be the primary applicant or my wife ?
2. I read that kids above 5 will require study visa and below will require visiting visa. Can this be further confirmed ?
3. Will all the application be together in one GCKEY account or it will be done for each of the family members ?
4. Will IRCC refer still make reference to my application, especially what was written in my own SOP ?
5. If yes to no 4, do I need to write the SOP for my family application now to align with my own SOP or it's not compulsory that the narrative be in alignment ?
6. My wife is a civil servant, is there need for her to obtain a leave of absence or something like that from her place of work to support the application ? Does IRCC confirm such letter ?

I will be grateful for your kind response. I'm sorry, my questions are plenty. I just want to get it right.

Thank you.

Yes my school, Conestoga college is doing online for this first semester. We are required to be in school before Second Semester begins.

Good morning all, Happy Sunday!😊
Please kindly answer this question 🙏

I applied for my immediate family after I got my study permit but the application was declined. In this application my spouse opened his own GICkey account and applied for SOWP then added the children under his application. I have applied for CBSA yet to get it.

My question now is if I want to re-apply for them can I do the application under my already approved application i mean under my own GICkey account?
Or continue with spouse’s GICkey account?

Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by lizzygurl: 1:58am On Jan 23, 2023
3. You can use one gckey to apply for everyone
4. They can, so I will advise that let the new and the old application be in sync. Be consistent with all the records you give.
5. I will advise you do, especially if you said something related to it in your previous application. As I said earlier, let all the info you give be consistent, in sync, and corroborate each other.
6. It will further strengthen and give more credibility to the application. I want to believe they don't confirm for everyone, but I will advise you to present genuine letter and inform people that you think might be responsible to respond should in case they decide to confirm.
