Omere, just carry all your document that allows you to be in canada and let your spouse carry his/her:
Proof of Marriage, Family Photographs, Identity and Status Documents of spouse (i.e. int'l passport or any other document to establish their status in Canada), letter of financial support from your spouse, Proof of residency of your spouse, such as utility bills, lease agreements or driver's license, employment and income documents (i.e. pay stubs, employment letter, or tax documents.


Good luck!

Please what are the documents required to flagpole for sowp and study visa for 2 children?

Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by OkukuOne(m): 1:14am On Sep 14, 2023
As of my last knowledge update in September 2021, babies or infants typically do not require a formal letter of introduction when coming to Canada on a visiting visa.

When traveling with a baby to Canada, you would generally need to ensure that the baby has a valid passport, even if they are very young. Additionally, you may need to provide documents such as a birth certificate for the baby, and it's advisable to carry a copy of the parents' visa or travel documents.

To ensure that you have the most up-to-date and accurate information on the requirements for traveling to Canada with a baby on a visiting visa, I recommend checking the official website of the Government of Canada or contacting the nearest Canadian embassy or consulate in the Country of residence. Immigration regulations can change, and it's important to be informed about the latest requirements before making travel plans.


Good luck!

Is doable, all needed is little planning.

You can get started by allowing madam to come in for a one-certificate course and you and the kids plan on joining her after like 2 to 3 months. However, if you want all of you to leave at the same time look for additional 10M and draft a very appealing SOP and the restthey say is history.

The Healthcare sector is hot and in demand. Do a proper research.


Good luck!

In addition, you need a consent letter from your husband to travel with the baby.
Cheers.

Greetings good people of Nairaland!

I am currently pursuing my studies in Canada, having commenced in the fall of 2023. It has been just under a month since I started my academic journey here. My study permit is valid for two years and includes a co-op program. During the application process, I found myself in a situation where I became pregnant, and it is almost 7 months old. The workload at school has become quite overwhelming, and I often find myself exhausted upon returning home from numerous classes and with so much assignments to deal with. Unfortunately, there is no available assistance for me.

Given these circumstances, I am interested in having my husband and our two-year-old daughter join me in Canada. I am seeking your advice on which type of visa would be the most suitable for them to apply for: a visitor visa or a Spouse Open Work Permit (SOWP)? While the SOWP option is a concrete plan, I want to explore all available options to ensure the best course of action for our situation.

I would greatly appreciate your insights and guidance on this matter. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by FocusLasers: 3:01pm On Sep 16, 2023
Hello Fam,

This is my full gist, hopefully it helps.
Application for SOWP and 2VVs submitted in May, approval was gotten for all by August. This didn't just come, there were mails and webforms sent sometimes in July, but note, they were more of seeking empathy for a quick decision as the family needs the reunification so much. All mails were and webform had the subject URGENT.

POE Experience
The officer requested for children's birth certificate, marriage certificate, spouse study permit (that was in the phone) and all the passports. That was it.

I would strongly advise everyone at POE remain calm, have confidence and put a smile on when it's your turn if you are not too drained.

Thank you all.

Good evening everyone
I'm here again....I have a huge question that has been weighing on my mind
I work as an Administrator for an NGO, but I don't get salary payslips because we are not registered yet and we've been operating for the past 5 years (thinking of registering now)
I also sew clothes seldomly but not as a strong source of income
My question is, will I be asked to provide salary slips or tax clearance?
Which one is preferred, an administrator or self employed in my work history?
My salary is usually send among the fund for other programs/outreaches we may be planning to do, so it's usually rare for my salary to be sent alone
Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by OkukuOne(m): 1:12am On Sep 18, 2023
if you have good POF with a good love story, then I will advise you to run with your dream.

Please how did he book upfront medicals without UCI? because I’m trying to do the same but it’s asking for UCI and I haven’t done biometrics before

Hello,

I just received another study visa refusal after two previous refusals. My programme is to start in November, and I think I still have time to reapply. Please can you recommend an excellent immigration lawyer that can help me with my visa application? I want to get it right this time around.

Thank you
Re: Canada Spouse Open Work Permit (sowp)timeline by Abbeybaba: 7:20pm On Sep 19, 2023
Kindly share your details to see what you have, we can help hear. My kids got 4 refusals and I got 2 refusals but finally we all got approved.

I have Finance background.
I did the first application myself and I got GCMS note for the first refusal for Financial Technology course in 2021

Afterwards, I decided to go to the UK for study. I finished my study in the UK, but I have been an Healthcare Assistant for about 1 year now. So I decided to go for a Continuing Care Assistant program. I explained the reason why I am switching in my SOP. I applied the second time in July 2023. I used about 4 bank statements in pounds with a total of 35,000 pounds balance and 9,000 USD mutual funds balance. That in my calculations was above 60,000 CAD and my school fees is 20,000 CAD.

The second refusal was on Financial reasons so I thought the VO made a mistake because of the multiple bank statements that I submitted. I transferred all my pounds into one account, and reapplied. I also explained the reasons for transferring all the money into one account in the new SOP.

I used an agent for my second and third application. I did not get GCMS notes for the second one.I have attached a copy of the refusal statement.

Please I need recommendations on an immigration lawyer or consultant that can help.
