Hello friends, Let me share my good news with you. After a delay in my SOWP application in March 30 to be precise, I reapplied on May 10, 2017 and got notification to pick my passport yesterday evening. I was scared to go because of all the delay reported on this forum over the weekend. Went today anyway and saw that it was approved. I return all the glory to Jesus. Olowogbogboro has turned things around for my good. He can do it for you too if you believe. #ItHasEndedInPraise 16 Likes 1 Share |

I had this same experience and I mailed them, when they responded, they gave me a date and time to come pick them up at the embassy. Make sure she picks it up as the hospital told me they were not going to attend to us without that stamped passport page( Again this could depend on the hosp). All the best. Toluwaase: |

VEIL1234:Yes, you are absolutely right. The first hospital we called, which we discovered was too expensive later, said they will not do the medical test without the stamped passport page. We called another hospital which was way cheaper, the asked us to come with a copy of the data page of our international passports. So, we did not bother to inform the CIC about the omission. Thank you. |

Hello guys, this is my profile First application - Online Timeline (submitted online 17th November and biometrics 18th November 2016). Refused 30th march 2017) Documents attached to lawyer * Scanned international passports * Upfront eMedical * Marriage certificate * Spouse enrollment letter * Spouse student visa * Spouse study permit * Spouse Canada bank account statement with closing balance of $10,000 CAD * Sponsor's 2 Nigeria bank account statement with combined closing balance of 12.5m * Sponsor's business documents * Use of rep form. When it was close to submission, our lawyer now said they didn't require bank statements for online application and there was no place to attach it. We weren't comfortable with it but didn't want to be arguing with professional since that was why she was employed to give advice. We followed her advice and didn't attach bank statements. It was later I now found out that there was a section on the online application to attach other documents where she should have made use of. On the refusal letter they ticked personal assets and financial status. Other reason: You did not demonstrate that you and your spouse have sufficient financial resources to support one year of study and your presence in Canada. I requested the GCMS case note and they wrote reason for rejection: Refused for lack of financial sufficiency. Second application - Paper Timeline (submitted and biometrics 10th May 2017. Passport pick up email 15th August 2017) Documents submitted: My documents * Required CIC forms * Refusal letter from previous application * Representative submission letter * Use of rep form * My letter of explanation * International passports * Previous upfront eMedical (still within a year validity) * Nigeria police report * UK police report (I've lived in the UK for more than 6months) * Marriage certificate * Change of name documents (newspaper publication, affidavit for name change) * BSc and MSc certificate and transcripts * My car documents (as proof of Personal asset) * Deed of gift of a property (as proof of Personal asset) * Birth certificate * Confirmation of employment * CV Spouse documents * Spouse bio data page * Spouse enrollment letter * Spouse student visa * Spouse study permit * Spouse tuition fee statement of account from school showing no outstanding fee as at the time of application * Tenancy agreement with rent payment receipts * Transcript * Unconditional offer letter Sponsor's documents * Two Nigeria bank account statement with combined closing balance of 21m * Sponsor's business documents * Affidavit of support * Bio date page of sponsor My Dad was my sponsor. I didn't submit my own statement of account and hubby's own as the balance was not satisfactory so I wanted it to be clear that he was the one sponsoring my stay in Canada. I used lawyer the second time but we all did the thinking together. I hope this long post helps someone. Wishing everyone success. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

BE811APP:Hello everyone, got my notes few days ago. The VO stated that we didn't put wedding photos to support my application that it was only marriage certificate, SOP and letter from my spouse. Then no evidence of previous travels which could demonstrate a history of having travelled and returned, limited ties to Nigeria . On balance, VO is not satisfied that ties to Nigeria are sufficient to ensure departure from Canada. I actually included the wedding photos and wedding IV but they were removed at VFS Please I need help on how to tackle all these and I wantto know how soon I can reapply. Thanks in advance |
Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by Markab: 6:46am On Aug 19, 2017 |
Well so sorry once again for the delay. I will try to advise with my little knowledge on OWP The VO has made your application simpler and easier. 1. It's true that Vfs does not accept pictures you could done things differently especially by printing those pictures on A4 and give it nice captions like I did for my wife when she applied. Attach like 4-5 strategic pictures of your wedding showing large attendance. 2. Travel history is not a major reason for refusal and can be cleared once you convince the VO on your proof of relationship and home ties. 3. I think the best way to tackle home tie is by writing a convincing SOP explaining your executable plans after your spouse's study. You can also include personal assets like car, pension statement, and landed property documents. In addition, you can explain a very important role you play in the family that you feel is convincing enough which could trigger your return as you would not want the vacuum you're leaving behind be left open for a long time. 4. You can apply anytime you're convinced that you properly addressed the VO's concern. Wish you well in your next application. Thank you adedoyen: 2 Likes 2 Shares |

Nawa o! I do not understand this picture thingy o! It has been said severally that vfs doesn't accept photos, I personally did not apply with any pictures myself. What was your closing balance? Please do not lose hope, re package and re-fire. Good luck with that... adedoyen: 1 Like |
Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by VEIL1234: 12:02am On Aug 21, 2017 |
Assist how? Just walk into your bank and ask for your statement, you will be charged a small fee which will be debited from your account immediately. We do not encourage falsified docs here. You will be found out anyway, and that can earn you a ban. You do not need a stain on your passport. Take it easy pray for direction and surrender all to God there must surely be a way i.e If you are truly interested in this journey. All the best! kessandra: 1 Like |

@ Markab, you are very good at this home tie thing o!I see have to keep thanking God over again because I didn't do justice to it in my sop at all. I was concentrating on my work experience and giving reasons why I would be valuable in the Canadian economy. For this particular application, I honestly think the VO was a bit too strict. We have seen approvals here without all this plenty story. Markab: |
