Hello,

What documents should I submit for my SOWP

Good back some few pages someone posted it recently

Quickly put in the SOWP and get a response faster, I was in this same position before applying for SOWP sometime in July, and PPR dropped for the SOWP within five weeks.


Hello! Do you think it is right for me to use my profile for his SOWP application this time? I opened a new profile for him for visitor's visa.

Also, i finished my studies this month already. Though my stud permit is expiring December, my enrolment letter says my study will be complete by August, 2022. Does is still make sense to apply for SOWP for my husband?

Hi LadyBlaq, you can use your profile or use the one you opened for him to apply for SOWP. I don't think it matters anyways.

If you already finished your studies, I'd suggest you hold on from applying for his SOWP, apply for your own PGWP, be sure you find job in NOC O, A or B and then apply for his SOWP else he will risk refusal on the basis that you are no longer a full-time student. At this point you need a lot of patience.

I wish you all the best!

I would suggest you both should arrive Canada first then use an immigration lawyer to argue out why you want to drop and rather apply for SOWP inland, you can as well do the application yourself if you are sure you can logically argue your case.

thank you so much for your response

Hello,

Please I need help/information on the Canada work permit visa because I'm new in this and I'm interested.

How can I apply for jobs in Canada and migrate with my family to Canada? Thank you.

Hello all, finally my husband's SOWP came in. It can only be Jehovah God, the almighty! I am going to see my family after close to a year!
This is good news, big congratulations to you. I really can’t imagine how you fared all this while. All thanks to God.

My husband applied for his work permit extension. Before his permit extension was approved, i applied for an open work permit in Canada and mine was approved just 3 months before my husband's current permit expires. So, I was given that 3 months permit. After mine was approved, his own extension came through for another 2 years. Can I return my passport back, so that they can also extend my permit, or what do I do?

I think the best thing to do is to apply for extension too. Submit his extension approval. Or if you can go to the border with all the necessary documents, it will be instantly extended.

I kept sending them emails and webforms. I also did MP inquiry. I also got a consultant here in Canada to email them. I don't know which one worked.

Hi gurus. Been a while.
Please I v someone who applied for sowp, got her correspondence letter and up till now (it's been nearly 2 weeks) no further updates. Could there be any reason to this? Also, can the person send a mail..


Many thanks
Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by Phatkayconcept: 12:59pm On Aug 25, 2022
Make we no lie, this SOWP application no easy.
PPR just dropped now. I sent a webform to London, Lagos, and Nairobi.
I also sent email to all their accounts.

After about 2hrs, Nairobi replied that they have sent a correspondence and it was a PPR.

Abeg, who knows the estimated return time to get passport back from Lagos and what is the steps please?

Hello, Please have you gotten any update from vfs about your passport? We sent to Abuja office since last Friday, no update yet. We tracked and it showed it has been delivered, yet no response or email communications from vfs. We have emailed vfs and they said it is not ready for collection. But unlike them no email at all.
Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by Phatkayconcept: 1:24pm On Aug 25, 2022

Congratulations. I think the emailing works. When I stamped my kids passport, it took about 9 days before it got back to us, submitted in Lagos.
