Hello All, one of the May SOWP applicants for my husband and kid...been worried about the looooong wait and so have checked this forum regularly to see if it’s just ours... was really sad though somewhat relieved to know how many applications were pending...sigh Wrote several mails to cic, my PM even Justin Trudeau (JT) was really desperate at a point ...anyway you all know the drill... Long story short, it would seem and I believe so that it took God to bring JT physically to my school for a townhall meeting.. I saw my opportunity, got my family details printed...sat strategically and waited for an opportunity to be called...God did it. I mentioned our case to JT and he promised on public television to look into it and accelerate... this was Jan10th or so, a week later they asked for my child’s medical, yesterday to the glory of God visa was approved finally! DJT may not come to your aid personally but God has many other ways and angels to bring His plan and testimonies to pass in your life. Good morning! Mark 11:24 7 Likes |

It quite unfortunate that cic has no valid explantion for the unscrupulous delays in May applications. SOWP applications filled from Nigeria are sadly the slowest in the history of mankind. However, the consolation is that in the Long run, it usually turns out to be a successful. My wife has been on the system for over 9months now, since May 28, 2018. I have explored all options, calling cic, corresponding with local MP, I even have gotten correspondence from the PM's office, sadly, all I get is: "your application is still under active review", office is currently operating out of service standards. Its a horrible experience, but God yet lives. Its a hard and tough call, but am confident we all will win in the very end. Success to all hopefuls, Godspeed! 1 Like |

Hi mikel88, Once again I congratulate you for your victory at last. Please I have a quick question. In your testimony, you mentioned you had to go for the medical test even though you didn’t get the mail to proceed. My wife has done something similar. She did the medical on January 3rd and up till now no update has been received on our online cic page for the medical. My question is, did you submit your e-medical printout through webform? If not, how did you get the e-medical printout across to CIC if you did. In our case, we haven’t done anything with the printout. I want to know if there is anything we should do that we haven’t done. Thanks |

barry011: eventhough this is not directed at me but yes, you should submit the printout through webform. January 3rd is over a month ago, maybe her medicals would have been passed by now. All the best.. |

Concate: Thanks for sharing this testimony. Many don't take this approach, mostly when the one with the study permit landed in Canada. My wife is the prospective study permit applicant (PhD), we intend to use this your approach considering our little darling daughter. Please, what are the supporting documents that we can attach? 1 Like |

Concate: Congratulations. Pls I am planning applying for SOWP for wife and children after securing my own TRV and have few questions. 1.Do I just submit SOP for spouse alone or still write additional one to support her own application. 2.Can I just transfer all the funds to her account for SOA or I still need to provide my account statement? 3.Kids are ages 4 and 6. What type of Visa do I apply for them. Thank you. 1. |

Congratulations Bigmove. God has really moved big in our situations. Please I want to ask, did you recently send CIC any message prior to approval? Also, did you get an email update that eligibility review has started? Or you just got an update and its Ppr. Awaiting your response. bigmove: 1 Like |

wealth360: Thank you wealth360, God be praised. *Aside the usual CSE and mails, my husband contacted the MP of his city in January and his office contacted ircc and also London office but no response other than application is being processed. His school contacted them too but were told they cannot have access the that information required. ** I always get the "there has been no update to your application" message monthly. I got a "you have a new message in your account" on friday 15th; logged in to see that eligibility review has started, and applicatiin approved. Then I got the no update to your application message the following day. ....sorry for the late response, been offline. 1 Like |

Ymin: Hi, My response to your questions are as follows: 1. We submitted two SOP/LOE - one for the applicant and the other for spouse to support the application (I did this for my husband) 2. It's important that she has the required amount in her account being the applicant. It's also good for you to have some funds in your account, if you are submitting it. Although, i don't know if this is IRCC requirement but I did it and it worked. 3. I have no response to q3 as i don't have kids yet. I hope this helps. |

Thanks for your response. Can my hubby go to the border to get the SOWP since application done online is taking too long and we are already in Ontario? Applied 10 Dec online and no response till now despite mails to CIC. Got only 6months left on study permit. Biometrics done in NIG and mail from CIC received. Is he required to do medicals in Ontario for SOWP? Please shed more light on Atlantic Canada. Fund is a big issue. An alternative to PR without taking a second course will be appreciated. |

Girly10: It all depends on the facts of your situation. If funding for your program is not an issue.. Atlantic Canada is cheap and easy to get PR. But if you have to work to survive, to pay your fees and all that, I advice you stayed in Ontario, the jobs are here. Again, you can start off school in Atlantic Canada and do summer hustles in Ontario, many do this. As per PR. You now have 6months after education to apply for PGWP. And with a 1year program, you get a 1year permit, in my guess, 1.5years is more than enough to put together a good application for EE. But again, a 2years program is safer. Your funds determine your choices. Godspeed. |

While London is known for approvals, Nairobi is notorious for its incessant rejections. Albeit, that trend is quite the opposite lately. In the end, what is important is a successful application. I wish you Godspeed. kife: |
