Hello House,

What God can not do, does not Exist!!!!!!!!

I decided to apply for SWOP and student visas application for my children, my last child is 5 years.

Application submitted: June 7
Upfront medical: June 22
Medical passed: June 27

These is to encourage those still waiting or anybody that has been refused before.
Please how can I reach out to you. I really need guidance on this please.

Well with little experience I had, SOWP is more easier than student visa or visitor visa, Since your spouse (student) genuinely admitted in any Canadian institution and you can afford the POF for each applicant with the support of your spouse documents such as LOA/tuition fee/enrollment letter if already in Canada.

Note: You can also proof your home tie with your employment, your parents or sibling and landed property ( which I noticed is not mandatory for SOWP )


Thanks for responding.

My spouse is not a student in Canada. He works there using a PGWP. And I’ll be the only applicant for the SOWP.

You can apply immediately, but I will advice you order note to know why the two applications were denied, that will help tackle it in your new application.

You can apply for Sowp.
The refusal treason in the last application is that that VO is not satisfied that I will return home after my study.

For SOWP please, do I have to prove that I’ll return home? Also I used to think SOWP is just for residents that have a study permit and not PGWP. Please correct me if I’m wrong. Also, I heard SOWP processing timeline takes months. How true please?

Thank you

Since ders no hour restriction. You can submit as many employment proofs as possible.
Hello nairaland!
I’m new here. Please is it okay to apply immediately right after two back to back study permit refusals?

If yes, is it also okay to try out SOWP for myself. My spouse lives and works in Canada with a PGWP.
