Best email arrived. "We sent you a message about your application"
I’m Foreigner and my spouse is Nigerian. His VV PPR finally arrived.

He applied for OWP in May 2021 no update,

He then applied for a Visitors Visa in December 2021 which was processed in Manila, Philippines but was rejected, VO stated on his GCMS note that he had no reason to visit me and our infant child. It was heartbreaking, and triggered more of my anxiety and depression.

In April 2022 I got my study permit extension for a second program and visitor’s record for my baby.

We did several research and assistance from other Nairalander Thanks to @Technix and @lianna2020.

Due to his past refusal we decided his application should be done in his country of citizenship Nigeria and not his country of residence.

He decided to reapply for a visitor's visa on May 14th 2022 and got PPR May 26th today. 12days dang!

He checked his OWP application and Eligibility review has started wow.

Over 372 days wow, finally I can smile and I believe and hope his OWP gets approved soon.

Big Big shout out to @justmellow, @gcmswriters. I really appreciate your service. They’re very professional and dang! they interpreted exactly what I was going through. For me I wrote my invitation letter myself. I really needed to express my frustration, depression and pain being alone with a 10 month old, how my marriage is threatened, my health is threatened, my spouse being a Nigerian has to prove himself worthy all the time and having different traditions and culture. I attached chats and conversations.

PPR after visa rejection from US, Australia and Schengen. It's a pattern when he applies for visas from outside Nigeria. This time he used his houses, investments and family in Nigeria as ties to his application.

Due to the limited upload size for documents on his visitors visa application he sent more documents via Webform to address his reapplication.

I just want to say thank you to Nairalanders and the community. I don’t wish this delay on anyone. I hope his OWP gets approved as soon as possible.

Good day House,

Please what helpful advice can you render?

I got married to my husband who is currently a student in Saskatchewan early last year.

On the 16/4/2021 I submitted my spouse open work permit and on the 21/4/2021, I did biometrics. I haven’t gotten a medical request from the Embassy yet. My husband refused to allow me access to the account he used in filing this application for me as he only has the password to the account he created and only him can access it. I can only receive mails although I know my application number, IRCC number and other relevant info but he said he has canceled the application and I am yet to be notified of the cancellation via mail.

My husband traveled back shortly after our wedding and since then, he has completely abandoned me here in Nigeria. He informed me that he has canceled my application for no reason and he said he is about to get married to another lady while his marriage with me is still valid.

I haven’t heard from him since last year and I do not know my fate concerning my pending application.

Is there any way you can help me check the status of my application if I provide the relevant info and what are the steps I can take concerning my predicament.

Candyomi:

I would like to ask about the better option between a spouse open work permit and a visitors' visa. My husband is on a study permit in Canada.Canada processing time from IRCC website revealed that spouse open work permit will take 49 weeks to process from Nigeria while it will take 139 days to process from inside Canada.
Visitors' visas will take 92 days to process from Nigeria.
However,my husband informed me that I cannot work in Canada with a visitors' visa because I cannot process a Social Insurance Number with it and that means I will be unemployed in Canada for more than 5 months if I decide to go for the Visitors' visa from Nigeria and later apply for a work visa from inside Canada.
Kindly advise on the better option.

ditha:
I don't think so. I don't know what their pattern is but i know someone that applied with no BSc result and no tangible work record and was approved in a short time recently

Guys please ooo i am in a serious dilemma i applied for a SOWP for my spouse alongside VV for my two kids on the old portal since july last year. The application will be 45 weeks this week. Now becos of the long wait I applied for VV for my spouse and two kids on the new portal in march 2022. Now i just logged in to the old portal tonight and saw that my two sons visit visa has been withdrawn since may 2nd 2022 ( like they just wrote application withdrawn final decision) for the two kids and my spouse application for sowp is till there active. No eligibility review just background check in progress. The kids VV and that of my spouse on the new portal is still active too. There was no mail to inform of the withdrawal. Please what can i do. In my experience i have seen this.

Heloo House...
How long does eligibility review last?

adeeeeeeeee:
Hello everyone, thank you for your good work here. Please I need some advice. My sister would like to pursue her dream in Canada, she graduated with Second Class "LOWER" in Law. Please is there any school you can recommend that will offer admission to her master's program? Please advise will be tangible at this moment. Thank you in advance.

Toceen2022:

Sincerely, no specific answer to this question.
For some, It can be within few hours, days, weeks, months or even a year.

Yesterday, someone said he noticed his eligibility has commenced when he logged-in in the morning and got PPR around 4pm same day... I've also seen someone whose eligibility has started since October 2021 and no final decision yet.

So, no specific answer to that question.

Waoh!!
Thanks for the information. I just hope one will be on the favorable lane of outcome

Toceen2022:


The truth is, it's very difficult to get admission for master's program with 2.2 in Canada, but not impossible.
Some factors may be crucial in deciding her graduate application.
1. Her GPA in the last 2 years of bachelor’s degree
2. If she can secure a supervisor before applying.
3. How many years of work experience in the field.
4. Her Statement of Purpose to Grad School in her application.

If these things her well placed, she could get an offer.
If not, she can apply to a college for Post-Graduate Certificate or Post-Graduate Diploma related to Law.

All the best to her!
