I have received my study permit got September 2019. Now I have applied for SOWP for my wife. But, I received Biometric instructions letter under my name instead of my wife's name.
How this can be possible ?

I am applying for SOWP. In the form imm5257 the first question as if I am principle applicant or spouse of principle applicant.
I am confused that which should I tick as I am a spouse of a skilled worker who is already working in Canada on a close work permit.
Please someone reply urgently.
Thanks

Greetings
Thanks for your response I really appreciate it ,I want to share some more things might be u can help me out in that too
I am working in Chandigarh and my wife is a full time student in Lambton from September 2019 intake , she had applied for my SOWP with a help of a lawyer based in Brampton but I got rejected with the reasons that I don't meet the requirements of SOWP under section 205 C (ii) but after research on it I found out that it was mistake from our lawyer side coz the decouments she had submitted was only
Marriage certificate
College offer letter
My salary slip in India
Application for only .
But one of my friend Who already got the visa told me that my lawyer should have submitted
College enrollment letter
Our marriage pics
Funds in my saving bank account
Our outing pics
Engagement pics and hall booking letters
Honeymoon destination tickets and hotel bookings
And other documents to support our relationship genuinity

But our lawyer didn't submitted anything like that ,do you think it could be a reason for rejection under section 205 c(ii) co the rejection letter only displaying this reason .
