You can apply for a sowp from inside Canada if you're on a visit visa. That's called "flag poling". You can research more on this.

@Folla
Well applying from inside of Canada is not actually called Flagpoling .One can apply Sowp from within Canada(inland) or outside of Canada(outland).The processing requirements for both is same but differs in processing time.
Flagpoling is when you exit Canada border and apply for Sowp at the border in person..Note that you must go with the necessary documents and with your spouse as well.The Border control officer will have to issue you a work permit at the spot since you already have a temporary residence visa..International students can also get Pgwp by flagpoling without applying online.

Praise God!!!! What God cannot do does not exist.

Hi Everyone, I am here to share my testimony and also drop the timeline of my application. It hasn’t been an easy road but God finally completed His work and to Him I return all the glory.
This was my second SOWP visa application as I had put in my first application together with my wife’s first study permit application early 2021 and both applications got refused. We had retained initially retained the services of a very reputable IRCC registered consultant in Canada and spent so much for this service, so getting a refusal on both applications had taken us off balance. In that confusion and desperation for a quick solution, I had gotten online and discovered the Study Permit thread on Nairaland which I thoroughly read through for weeks and kept coming across a particular name with people singing his praises and how he helped transform their cases and refusals to approvals through his detailed touch “Frankrobb”, I took a leap of faith and reached out to him and I must confess, that was one of the greatest decisions I ever made. After consulting with him, we agreed my wife applied alone for her second study permit application and when she gets the visa and arrives Canada, I apply for my SOWP to join her which we did and here we are, all visas approved to the praises, glory and thanks to God almighty. I want to also use this medium to appreciate Mr Frank for his hard work and also being a blessing to my family’s application success, your cup will never run dry, men will favour you and come to your aid before you ask. Amen.
