Hello everyone,

Please let me know if applying for SOWP has higher chances of approval? or applying the same from india is better option.
what's the average approval rate for SOWP while applying from India.

Thanks!

Hi everyone. I am currently on my PhD (commenced Sept. 2018) in Canada. I applied for SOWP on behalf of my husband on January 24, 2019 but today I got a rejection. Here is the reason:

you did not provide a valid Labour Market Impact Assessment from the Department of Economic and Social Development Canada and/or demonstrated that you are entitled to apply for an open work permit.

Please what does this mean? Note that LMIA is not required for our application. I feel really bad; we included every [possible document. Please kindly advise. Thank you

Hello everyone!
My spouse OWP is rejected two times. In first letter reason was section 205(c) (ii)
You have been unable to adequately demonstrate that you meet the requirements of a
spousal open work permit under section 205(c)(ii) of the Regulations.
Second time refused on 1 feb 2019 with following reasons:
Grounds for refusal:
I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in subsection 200(1) of the IRPR, based on your current employment situation.
I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in subsection 200(1) of the IRPR, based on your family ties in Canada and in your country of residence.
I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay, as stipulated in subsection 200(1) of the IRPR, based on your travel history.

I don't know what to do know. Can anybody help me. Is there any chance to reapply? My consultant will apply for GCMS or CAIPS notes behalf of my husband in few days but for this my consultant asking for 150$ fees. Please give me a suggestion..
