Quick question on behalf of someone:

I'm currently enrolled in the Practical Nursing program at Georgian College, Ontario for the January to April 2024 semester and have been accepted into the same program at a Lethbridge college in Alberta, starting in September 2024. Is it permissible according to IRCC regulations for me to end my studies at Georgian College after the first semester in April 2024 and wait until September 2024 to begin my studies in Lethbridge? Specifically, what steps should I take to ensure my study permit remains valid during the break from April to September?

I'm changing school and province cos of family unification.

Good morning gurus in the house,

Pls, i am posting here for the first time and i want you guys to help me out.

First, i have an organization in canada that stated that except i have a valid work permit or be a citizen of Canada before they can offer me a job.

Secondly, how do i apply for Canada work permit from Nigeria?

Thirdly, what are the documents needed to apply for the work permit?

Pls, your responses will be appreciated, thank you all.

Guys, I need urgent response please...
I got a passport request 4 days for my Kids to join their mum in Canada.
What are the steps in doing this if I am to send to DHL?
What are the associated fees please?
I learnt there is a transmission fees if you are submitting to a different Visa Office other than where Bio-metric is done.
In this case, Bio-metric was never done as they are below the age requirement but my Statement of Purpose was address to the Lagos Visa Office, though upfront medical was done in Abuja
Someone is submitting on my behalf and I need to guide him.
I am currently in the UK

Do you have a spouse in Canada?

No, i don't have. I have been communicating with the organization forsome times now and they know the kind of work i do here which is this same job with the organization but they told to either get work permit or be a citizen before they can offer me a job.

So, i want to know how i can apply for the work permit thank you

If this company want to offer you a job, they know what to do, they are just stressing you. They would have given you a LMIA job. The truth is you can’t apply for work permit because you are not eligible to apply. I might be wrong sha o.

Thanks very much for your response. I have gone through the ircc website and discovered that the company need to send to me LMIA in order to apply for the work permit and i have sent email to the company on that but i just want to hear from experts in the house if i am right.

Once they reply today, i will know what to do.

Plz guys I am still in Nigeria and about to submit for my spouse and kids .

Is it ok to just submit my spouse acct , the POF is in his acct or do I need to still show my personal acct and business acct for support ?

LholarB:


Ok , thank you

Also I have paid first semester fees and I submitted my biz acct as source of funds , my personal acct and spouse acct as POF in my first application

Now for SOWP , looking at just submitting spouse personal acct as he has bulk of the money in his acct to cover for him and our 2 kids

Will this fly ?
Or can I still show support by submitting my biz account to show part of source of funds ( has good inflow and outflow ) and my personal acct ?

sunwintrav:




how much is in the bank statement your husband presented?

It was N4,000,000

You are right , the company if interested you will send you LMIA if they can't send it , it simply means they are not really in need of your services .

Just know that you can't apply for work permit if you just want to visit Canada it has to be through LMIA, SOWP
Good luck

Hello everyone... I got an update for my SOWP... Now my data shows biometrics: COMPLETE, Eligibility: in progress, Background check: in Progress. How long will take before hearing from IRCC again?

Thanks very much, i will keep the house posted.

Nobody really has the answer to that. So far your application is still within the processing time on the IRCC website you just have to continue praying and hoping for the best. But if it has you can start raising webforms and emails.

Don't fall into the IRCC trap. The impression they have now is that many if you don't really have thr money that you claim you have in your statement, hence the rush for SOWP for your spouse so that he/she will be working to pay for your tuition fees or living cost. The impression they have about Nigerians now is terrible. This is from a reliable source. You may be asked to present the evidence of payment of full tuition fees. Somebody is now in a serious soup. He submitted the SOWP for his wife. IRCC is now requesting the payment of full tuition fees or else the already approved Study Permit will be revisited and reviewed. Canada is not smiling now

If after paying the full tuition fee, will they still ask for updated bank statements? Or the tuition fee receipt?

Tuition fee receipt that’s more proof to them.

I don’t know why IRCC wants to divide people’s home. There’s nothing bad having the intention to work and support your spouse. They should focus on the genuineness of the marriage as they have been doing.
God help us.

I am sure when the new law enters into effect, the requests already submitted prior to the date will still be processed... I pray that it will be alright with our SOWP!

Cjnick:




I am also in the same situation with you. My spouse is enrolled in undergraduate program and has started classes in Canada already.
I have already applied for SOWP around December. Hope this new law about SOWP won’t affect anything.

I noticed that IRCC pays more attention to applications involving a child. ie. A spouse applying with a child. The child is a strong way they know the marriage isn’t fake and child needs both parents.My opinion though.
Any contribution?

They will eventually answer everybody they’re just slow and nobody knows why.

Hello everyone, I have a question please.

I’m currently in Canada, and want to apply for my husband (sowp) and two kids (study visa and visit visa). However, I’m confused on the total amount in CAD to show as their POF.

I need clarity, please

This is not about breaking marriage or genuiness of marriage. Canada is in a serious problem now. The Liberal Party that is in control is at the verge of losing the next election because Canadians are very angry with them with the rise housing cost and unemployment due to the influx of foreign students, foreign workers, and their family members. You don't expect them to lose the electorate support because you want to join your spouse. Please read this:

Since you are four with your spouse. Go and check the LICO requirement for the family of four

Okay. Thank you

When did you submit the application so we can count 12 weeks which is the general approximate lead time?

I submitted January 24th...

Is it advisable to apply for a visitor visa while I wait for my SOWP outcome?

[quote author=Jeboy post=128445379]When did you submit the application so we can count 12 weeks which is the general approximate lead time?

When exactly does the 12 weeks counting start? After submission or after biometric?

After your biometrics. [quote author=Cjnick post=128449421 [/quote]

So it is ok to just submit my spouse acct then ??

Besides the POF my spouse and kids are using is more than what I used for my POF and I actually still use my funds for business , so I still have my funds on me

But I understand your point tho , will use just his own account for the application , thanks
