    Sponsoring Husband Inland , how long of a process?

    He can possibly work remotely yes. He could if needed take a month or two break from his current position if we could maybe get an OWP by May or so. If the OWP takes a few months to process, how long will the AOR take to be received if we submit the application over the next few days? Or will...

    Sponsoring Husband Inland , how long of a process?

    Thanks a bunch for the quick reply. It appears that an OWP may be the best option for us so he can continue working, I don't believe we can extend the visa. We will aim to submit the SCPLC asap. Any idea on how long we can expect that process to take until we can receive the AOR? Thanks again!

    Applying for Work Visa, but Common-Law Partner has expired PR card

    Okay thanks a bunch. It looks like as a result of me listing her as a common law in my PR application, that it's prompting me to pay for the application fee of over 1k for each of us, so almost 3k total. Should I proceed with this, or is this a mistake, as she is already a PR?
