This your question will confuse anybody are you the dependant to your spouse on study permit

The children is under 5 will be on VV, 5 and above will be study permit.

You as the applicant to the spouse on study permit is applying for work permit

The name of your spouse on work permit is what you fill

The house address in Canada is required

Relationship is Marriage .

Remember Marriage certificate must be uploaded, wedding pics is also added advantage

Good day house,

Is that people are not getting SOWP approvals in Nigeria or people are not sharing their PPR on this platform cos I hardly read about approvals recently.

Please guys those testimonies bring hope to those waiting. Kindly share. Many thanks

My people!!!

My God has answered oooooooo. How do people who get PPR at night sleep? 😃 Please what position do they use. God has done it.

PPR!!!!! My God is indeed good and kind.

We had biometric from a visitor’s visa application submitted in June 2022. After waiting for 5 months, we decided to put in SOWP.

Eligibility started 29th Jan 2023
Medicals passed 29th Jan 2023
Medicals changed to we do not need medical exam, we will let you know bla bla bla 3rd Jan 2023, apparently our medicals expired.

4th Jan GCMS notes received and indicated “Review Required” on my eligibility for a document they claim my spouse didn’t submit. Apparently it was submitted initially but we sent again via webform.

We booked and did another medicals 16th Jan.
Qlife confirmed they had sent our medical results on 21st Jan 2023.

31st Jan 2023 at exactly 8:30pm our love letters landed.

Only God can do this. I promised I will share my timeline to encourage other people waiting.

Just yesterday, I was asking why people are not sharing their timeline to encourage pple because I was down and needed to read from people, but here I am sharing mine.

Please be encouraged. God is working behind the scenes for you.

Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by OkukuOne(m): 12:16am On Feb 01, 2023
@Makano, Skull4eva, aestake, and all respected leaders here, I have come to enquire how best to present our case.

Spouse is a student and she left in early Jan 2023 for a one-year Program with Co-op being inclusive. Her SP and WP are to expire Jan 2024.

We are planning to apply for OWP for hubby and SP for 3 kids of age (14, 11, and 9).

Hubby is the sponsor and has good travel history. Hubby works outside the shore of Nigeria

She also used home ties as detailed below in her SP application:

1. Ability and efficiency in supplying services to her community on her return to Nigeria.
2. it will increase career prospects
3. enable her to compete both locally and internationally.
4. mother-in-law and her 17-year-old cousin living with them.
5. promise to return to where she volunteered before she traveled; so that she can share knowledge
6. Set up a similar outfit (of study) in the future because her community has a shortfall in the area of skill acquired.
7. Together with hubby, they have landed properties in Nigeria.

what is the shortfall on this SOP since we (hubby and kids) are planning to apply for OWP and SP ??

Can we now use spouse's parents, hubby's mother, and land properties as home ties?

Is medical a must for hubby? if yes

Is Upfront medical okay since hubby travels a lot and IRCC can send them for medicals while hubby must have returned to work?

Do children need medical? if yes

Is Upfront medical okay since hubby needs to take them there as well?

Do children of age (14, 11, and 9) need biometrics?

GCKey for student or GCKey for hubby, which is preferable?

The big question here is when to apply? Though I have read people apply asap, some after 3 months, while others a year later

I will appreciate scrutiny and the best approach to the entire process.

Thanks, for your anticipated assistance team.

Good evening house,

Please I was at DHL office today and requested for a 2 way courier but I was told DHL has stopped offering 2 way courier services, that I could only make payment for one way.

Please I will like to submit my passport to Abuja, how have people been doing it. Should I go to the Lagos office and request that my passport be sent to Abuja or …..

What other option do I have pls?
Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by Restricted: 7:04pm On Feb 01, 2023
You need to pay a transmission fee if you are sending your passports to Abuja for stamping. See fee and account details in the link below. The second account is the one you are paying into.
