Nawa o! Why are they taking so much time? They should have finished September students own by now.

Did you do upfront medicals? Or waiting for request?
That means they've not started processing MAY, not to talk of JUNE.
I have been in an Indian SOWP WhatsApp group, and it's been intimidating so far. They are processing their July applications now, and many people are getting their PPR

Please, anyone with an ongoing application should give us a timeline, so that we can know how far they are. Let's help ourselves

Good evening! I'm a new member to this thread. It's been dry for some time now since I've been following as a non member.
Please have they stopped approving SOWP for Nigerians?
Or they've not approved so far for people on the thread?
What is the success rate now?
Any recent update?
Applied SOWP June 14th, no recent update so far apart from medical passed and eligibility review.
Do I have any in my shoes also?

NVGKP1:
Good morning my good people. This is to encourage someone out there. I applied for SOWP on 17th July, via paper route, upfront medical and just today 27th August my application got approved. It's the Lords doing and it is marvelous in our sight. Note I applied with my 3 kids wify is already studying in Canada. For those still waiting for approval Our almighty God will do it for you IJN Amen.

Hello Guys,

I'm currently a Post-Grad student in British Columbia, I was able to successfully bring my wife and daughter here..

my wife has a SOWP and my daughter has a visitors' visa since shes' just 2 years old.

My program ends next year and it would be the end of 3 years post graduate study for me in Canada.

My question is.. How do I go about converting my self, wife and daughter to PR holders... I know I should be getting a three years PGWP after my program ends.. Just looking for advice from someone that's been through this.

Merci!
Thanks

Hello everybody on the thread. I am a silent reader on this thread, and I appreciate the contributions of you guys. I give all glory to God for ensuring the approval of wife application and those of my four children this morning. This is the second application. The first one was rejected last year based on insufficient funds. This is the second application. I am a Masters student at MUN.
Application timeline:
Applied (online) May 23
Biometrics: May 25
Call for Medical: July 31
Medical Done: August 3
Medical Passed: August 3
Passport Request: August 6

I want to beg you guys to be patient till tomorrow to share my documents. I am very busy today. I pray for success of everyone that applied before and after my family applications in Jesus name.

Jimmychuks2018:
Update! Got my passport today with Canada visa. I return all glory to God! My kids passport still in high commission! Submitted separately because their passport request came before mine. It will end in praise for everyone of us.

Good morning Guys.... And Happy new month, I pray our expectations won't be cut short this month by Gods grace. Amen.

Before today I have kind of put the application at my back so as not to worry about it. The no update email from CIC came in again which makes me to start thinking what could be wrong?

My application is 17 weeks counting..... No update since after biometrics, No medical request and bla bla. I sent emails in the 14th week to about 9 different processing office....some replied that is still processing. Also sent CSE using Lagos office..they replied is actively processing. Hubby through the office of his Member of Parliament found out that its been processed in visa office London(UK) and they acknowledged delay in the processing of work permit applications in general as of 18th of July, but promise to start working on them soonest though with out timeframe.

I took my time yesterday to read through the study permit thread for Canadian student and discovered some of them sent in E-medical slip through CSE and was acknowledged despite the fact that it wasn't requested and wasn't done upfront.....noticed @jimmychuks2018 also did likewise from the thread. I am thinking of going for medicals next week and sending it to them through CSE maybe it will fasten it....what do you guys think?

I need your advise. Thank you for your time and have a great day.

Good afternoon all Naijas,

I need clerance on the below,


Is it possible after receiving Approval letter and your passport for sept intake, Can a spouse apply for Spousal Open Work permit when the principal Applicant have not resume school? So that both of them can travel together?

If yes, someone who have done such should share his or her experience with supporting documents S/He submitted.

Looking for forward to hear and make decision.

Bab5:
Thank you @mikel88 I really appreciate. Amen! We will all hear good news by Gods grace.

Bab5:
Good evening guys. Please I need your views on this.....

My husband wants to put in our application for PR but has been waiting for a while now for the decision of my work permit before going ahead. Can one put in another application while one is ongoing?

The main reason for the wait is so I won't have dual intention ( one being temporary stay with plans to come back home and other being permanent stay) which might impact the others.

I really appreciate your views. Thank you

ChrisBanksO:


Yes, on PGWP

I'm soo happy.. Passport request mail received today and before my husband could have access to his mail I opened the mail first, I was in class when the email dropped because I always look forward to any email he received. My heart was beating fast and I started crying in class that my professor came to hug because I couldn't hold back my tears of joy.

Please do not give up and keep trying, he has been denied 3 times (rejected twice for study permit and once for visitor visa) we just gave SOWP a try and Alhamdulilah it was approved .

Submitted: Feb 25
Upfront medical
Medical passed March 25
Passport request June 12

I believe she can use her Nigerian bank account if the account is in her name.

mcstan18:


It's not compulsory. If she has monies domiciled in different bank accounts of different countries, she may combine them to make up her PoF. She will need to sufficiently prove that the monies belong to her and (using a reliable and verifiable exchange rate), that the aggregate is at least equal to the minimum PoF requirement in CAD.

mikel88:
Please is it compulsory your statement of account must be a Canadian account if you are in canada or you can use your Nigeria account for the proof of fund? I have someone in canada that just got her ITA and her father is finding it challeging and expensive to transfer money to her canadian account..... she intend to use the fund as gift of deed.
