no, they don't

Isn't a Provincial Attestation Letter a compulsory requirement for application for Study Permit? Does this mean it is only applicable for new study permit applications and not required for a study permit extension?

Thank you

Please do student already in Canada require a Provincial Attestation Letter to apply for their Student Permit Extension?

Please if I have an OND and HND from a Nigerian school and have a PGD from a Canadian College, would I still need to evaluate my certificate with WES since my highest certificate is from Canada?
If yes, would I need to still evaluate my OND since it is my lowest certificate?

I sincerely really need your urgent guidance.

Ogbigog:
I hope the people that kept arguing that you can apply for SOWP when you get PGWP can see this.

And no you can not apply for SP for your kids. You can only apply for VV for the whole family.

I have just gone through the IRCC website and can not find any statement on the website that supports this notion that one can't apply for SOWP through PGWP.

Jeboy:
There is no SOWP route for College or PGD students again. It's dead and buried. Only option is to move from PGWP to LMIA or get PR to bring spouse via SOWP. PGWP is still a kind of work permit tied to the condition of the student which is a college graduate so no SOWP. The PGWP option you think is available to bring spouse is actually LMIA (closed work pernit) except the student is admitted or enrolled in a Masters or professional degree then there spouse qualify for SOWP. Spouse of such student can still apply for SOWP when they move from students to graduates (PGWP)

Can you please clarify your last sentence " Spouse of such student can still apply for SOWP when they move from students to graduates (PGWP) "

What will happen to the SOWP of spouses for students with study permit of just one year who are aiming to renew their study permit for an additional year? Meaning, if the SOWP ban takes effect before your study permit expires, how does the spouse request for a new SOWP especially as SOWP can not be renewed.

Any solution please?

Predator188:

Current study permit holders are not affected..

How true is this? You mean spouses of current study permit holders who are yet to apply for SOWP are not affected by the new policy?

Please what is current mininum proof of fund required for Spousal Open Work Permit in Canada? As at two years ago it was $5k but I am not sure what the current amount is.

Please help.

Will this new SOWP ban affect affect spouse of students already in Canada or it will only affect spouses of students yet to be issued study permits?

Rasakiopoewa:
Am afraid, that is a long time. She can renew her study permit anytime as long as she has all documents for the renewal. She does not need to wait till the last minute before re-applying. When she re-applies , she should add you up if you are in canada, if not you can right away apply now but the minimum duration on your spouse visa should be six months to apply. Ur spouse should apply immediately and ias soon as her study permit is approved, you can add it to your application. Apply with what she is having now and pray they dont make a decision before she gets the new approval and you can send it to IRC . Best wishes

I learnt one can only apply for study permit renewal until it is 3 months to expiration.

My wife study permit expires in July, although she will be seeking extension by April for another one year. Does this mean I have to wait until she has been granted extension by April before I apply for my SOWP, seeing that renewal of SOWP isn't allowed?

You can apply before it expires but if u can be patient a little wait for her to get an extension reason is that if you apply now they will grant you visa until the date her current visa expires and will extend it only when her new application is approved so u see the choice is yours

Thank you Chief. If she applies for extension of her study permit, does that mean her visa would also be extended? My worry is that her current visa expires in June and I won't be applying for SOWP until August.

OkukuOne:
You have the option to apply now or later, based on your readiness.

Regarding the extension of her study permit until 2025, you didn't provide many details, which limits my ability to offer specific advice. However, I'll outline two possible scenarios:

1. If she needs to retake a failed course, she will likely get the extension. However, if the courses are few, her study permit status might change to part-time. This could significantly impact a spouse planning to apply for a SOWP.

2. If she's starting a new course for a year, that's straightforward. However, I recommend starting the SOWP application process now or preparing all necessary documentation to justify why you need to join your spouse immediately. If your SOWP application is pending when the extension is approved, you'll just need to update your application with the new documents via webforms to IRCC.

Good luck!

Thank you Boss. She is starting a new course next year and hereby seeking her study permit extension. So from what I hear you say, her study permit extension is enough for me to apply for SOWP.
Does this mean if her study permit is extended, it automatically extends her visa too?

feelingmyswag:

You asked a question and Answered it inbtw..
* If her study permit is open until June 2024, it means you can apply for SOWP. and she need to show evidence of available finance to support you whilst she studies.
* Depending on her course length year, if it's above 1 year then she ought to have more than a year study permit stamp. Whichever is the case scenario her study permit is her legal temporary stay in Canada and if expires and her study is finished, she will not be able to extend her visa and you won't be eligible to apply for SOWP.

Her current course of study is just one year, although she intends to apply for another one year next year.
The problem is I'm not prepared to leave for Canada until August next year which unfortunately her current visa would have expired.

So how do I apply for SOWP then?

Please guys, I need your clarification.

My wife study permit & student visa expires June next year. The plan is to extend her study permit an additional year to 2025. Can I apply for Spousal Open work permit from Nigeria next year August using her study permit alone after her visa expires? Does she need to apply for student visa extension before I can apply for SOWP?

Your urgent response will be appreciated.

Hello everyone
Please who know or have details on how I can use form A to pay tuition fees for University of Regina. Please🙏..

I hear I have to use flywire to get there details then use it on Form A, that they do not have a direct account.

Please any help.

You have to generate a flywire payment instruction on the Flywire. You then the Flywire Payment instruction details as Beneficiary information when filing your Form A.
