quote author=sam4774 post=108769211]Guys i had PPR for both my visit visa and my work permit just now now oo!!! Ahhhh pleaseeee!! Ask me all you can ask me ooo!!! I will answer as soon as possible just after my running up and down

so i went through your past posts to try to understand what your whole situation is, and if i am correct you applied for your 6 and 4 years old kids and your husband in one application? however the 6 year old should be applying for a study visa and not a visitor visa because the child is above 5, however all these are very adjustable in canada.

your situation isnt dire, your husbands sowp will not waste as much time as an applicant applying for sowp without any accompanying applications. the only thing you may need to start doing is be aggressive, i sent exemption webform 2ce and IRCC threatened that if you send more than once they will deny you and yet i still got PPR. try getting a gcms note as well, it makes them pick up your application to process the gcms note. another option is emailing an MP and asking to process urgent request and highlight why your husband and your kids need to be reunited with their mum.

children in canada are subjected to free education, they barely ask for info or papers until you are of college age so the child will go to school while you correct that 6 years olds issue. in canada applications are treated very fast so it should be out within 2 months for the kid.

please dont do another application thats waste of money for your situation, applications like yours are usually sorted out without taking too much time. you have to just be a bit more aggressive with nairobi office, send emails everyday and reach out to your MP for that urgent processing. they went on holiday from Wednesday and will resume on the 3rd of January in the MPs offices. so before then send emails, weforms and spam IRCC.

Cynk:
congratulations again Sam. is it true that if my husband come on a visiting visa and myself who is a student and hasnt spent one year in canada, then my kids cannot access free education? pls its this info that has kept me from applying for visiting visa on the new portal. pls do u have this info, and do u know how long it is expected to take to now get SOWP from inside canada? i am frustrated here especially because of my kids who ve been largely affected. thank you

thank you

Sweetness24:
Wow, congratulations to you

thanks Awas
exemption is proof that you are reuniting with an immediate family member, so i attached marriage certificate and complete covid vaccine card

Awas:
congratulations!!! please on the new visitors visa what did you upload as proof of exemption.

member of parliament, yes thats what it is.

I will be a big ingrate if i dont give back to where i collected and shared so much vital information on.

ok so basically guys the honest truth is SOWP is still dragging, I dont want to give you false hope. this situation that has happened to me is like when a duck is gracefully swimming above water but the legs are paddling like crazy under.

first of all if you can get a reasonable MP that is patient and will request an urgent processing. when i gave up on my SOWP was when i processed an urgent processing from my MP and IRCC indirectly told him that it will be ignored. that was the straw that broke the camels back. the MP told me to contact him in 4 months to attempt again, meanwhile i was already on my 6th month in October then. I proceeded to apply for visit visa on October 27th and did an exemption webform. 30 working days passed and still nothing, at this point i started sending webforms again up and down.

frustration set in for me as my 8 months SOWP was totally off the table and i had put it on the back-burner and was chasing the Visit visa under reuniting with immediate family.i reached out to the MP again to do an inquiry on my Visit visa and it came back with their usual rubbish, so i decided to do an urgent request on that one where i attached screenshots of numerous application timelines of people in my similar situation getting their visit visa in mere days meanwhile i was on my 39th working day.

i used the gc key to apply for both applications I was getting desperate and wanted to do another visit visa application with the fast portal, i came to find out on nairaland that it was generally October applications that were being ignored. the use of gc key came to be my saving grace as they must have treated both my applications as one general eligibilty test and then gave me my PPR.

guys my long and short is sending webforms indiscriminately is not enough please be strategic, if your own MP for your area is being difficult, claim you are from another postcode and email the MP there and test your luck. also it is very worthy to note that as usual stand alone SOWP are still not being prioritised, so if you can apply for a visit visa.

God will make it easy for us all in Jesus name

very pleasant indeed! thanks so much

Kenon1:

mikekhan:

Debbieeeeeee:
Congratulations sam4774 perfect Christmas gift.

Very perfect ooo!

Guys they answered me for my october visit visa as well as my sowp that was pending!

Guys i had PPR for both my visit visa and my work permit just now now oo!!! Ahhhh pleaseeee!! Ask me all you can ask me ooo!!! I will answer as soon as possible just after my running up and down

hi, that group full of october visit visa applicants, has anyone of them started getting PPR yet?

aloskyyoung:
So many OCTOBER applications of spouse reuniting with family members still pending. In fact, when I saw complaints from them, me that I am travelling for normal tourism, I just calm down…..The back log is just too much, I have sent up to 5 web forms within a week…..Still no positive response, just GENERIC AUTO REPLY that I am getting.

i will be honest with you and i may be wrong, but please dont defer anything. study visa is not easy to get, you may have got it on the first try but its a struggle for most even with all the assets, covid is another issue, dont give IRCC opportunity to play with your applications. please let him go or do online classes collect SIN, STUDY PERMIT gan gan and apply for all of you. one leg in is better than both legs out. your SOWP application will not waste time as it is being accompanied with study visas.

teelady:
Hello all, please I am in urgent need of your kind guidance. My husband recently got his study visa approved, but he wants to defer his resumtion till September while he apply for study visa for our two kids and I and my last child as an accompanying parent and sibling, and also apply for sowp while still in Nigeria, hoping to inform the ircc of his deferment due to him not being able to stay without his family. And we hope to use his aged mother and siblings and my own family too has home tie, we have a house in Nigeria, and a business project in the developmental stage, we also wish to use his land and my building documents too. Now my question is, since he won't be traveling which shows his sincerity of purpose and his regret for not applying with us initially, what is our chances of success. Thanks in anticipation

i will be the first to congratulate you jare!! this is good news, i pray it comes on time brother.

Stonehenge83:
Good morning all, PPR news must drop here before Xmas in Jesus name.

My wife ordered our second GCMS notes since September and it came in this month. Here's one of the notes. Abeg does this mean they are about to send PPR for my application?

thank God, we should be expecting good news then

Stonehenge83:
They've updated it
