TravelRe: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by iamraphson: 11:47pm On Apr 26, 2023
Hey guys,

10 months and 8 days later, still no update on my application. Anyway, I decided to do request for GCMS notes on my application. They replied me this night, I saw one of the note text saying "Applicant is applying for an open work permit; However eligility for any LMIA exemption code is unclear" from last Q4. Although the date on this particular note was before I contacted the MP who said My wife's study permit is missing from my application which he helped me send it as I saw in my quoted message. For some reason, the note text is not sitting well with me. Sound more like my application says i have a pending offer or something. Should i be more worried?

Also,I heard medical expires after a year. i submitted upfront medical for my application which was done end of May 2022. Will i be doing another medical any month again?

Damn, IRCC is really humbling me. They are teaching me "patience"

Hey guys

I need advice on my application. Me and my wife are tired and frustrated at the moment.

My wife is at Canada on study permit.

I applied for SOWP via an agent(Tar global) June 18th, 2022 and did my biometric June 23rd 2023. The last update on my application was medical exam passed which was on July 22nd, 2022. Since then, there was not update on my application. My wife went to meet the MP for her province to make enquiries about my application Early Dec, he got back saying IRCC said they are not sure if I am eligible for SWOP hence her study permit is missing from the application. We contacted the agent about it, they sent a proof that her permit was uploaded. Anyway, My wife went to drop the study permit with MP 1st week of jan so he can send it to IRCC. 2 days later, IRCC confirmed(via MP) they have seen the permit. We should wait since we are still within the waiting period. Waiting period expired on Jan 18th, there is still no update.

Jan 31st, the agent contacted me that IRCC has changed the requirement for SWOP so they want to be proactive by sending my wife's Transcript and enrollment letter. Up till now, there is no update. I don't know what to do. Any advice can go a long way. Thanks
