Hi,

I'm planning to apply for my spouse from Canada. (waiting for the marriage certificate to come)

Can someone please tell me the details regarding the open work permit part which we can get after 1st stage?

We are also planning to travel outside country (for a month) after applying for the immigration.
Can someone please clarify if I can travel during the processing of my application because I heard they can void the immigration application if you travel outside Canada?

Also, I will appreciate if someone can share their timeline who recently applied. Does it really take 11+8=19 months to get the immigration?

Thanks in advance,

I am just curious how long it takes for the work permit to arrive after that notification of AIP & OWP approval?

My timeline is in my signature. Unfortunately, CIC is very inconsistent, and there's no real way of knowing just how long your app will take. The best you can do is do a lot of reading, take care with your application, include everything that's needed, and hope for the best.

If you submit your application inland, the sponsored person is supposed to remain in Canada for the duration of the process. Your wife can always leave, but if she is denied re-entry, then the application is void, your money and time has been wasted, and you have to start over (AND you have to report the denial of entry as you put together a new application). Some have traveled and reentered Canada during the process with no difficulty. However, for me, I thought the risk too great. If I got that one Immigration officer at the border who was in a pissy mood, and I got denied (despite being an American, and visa-exempt - it happens, my husband personally knows one man whose American wife was denied entry at the border), I would be CRUSHED if we had to start over again.

I don't know much about the OWP, as I didn't not submit one, but I do know you cannot apply online before AIP is received. You must submit a paper application for OWP with your PR application, and yes, it is granted when AIP (first stage approval) is received. You get the paper permit in the mail a little while after getting the AIP email.

I am so happy today
I just got the DM letter from CIC this afternoon and it was fantastic
My personal process is 1 year and it almost done ^^
I sent my application to CIC in August 2012
I got AOR in November 19, 2012
My application in process in Jan 10, 2013
I received AIP in Oct 3, 2013
And I got DM letter in Oct 15, 2013
Now just waiting for the interview date of Etobicoke office.
Anyone have any experience interview there? And how long would it take for the Etobicoke office send me the interview date?
I didnt pay the 490 PR fees and I will gonna pay immediately. Will it make my process take longer? What should I bring to the interview
So happy, today. I wish your guys have a good day too ^^
BtW. Congrats on getting your DM. I noticed that you are on the timesheet so I had to update your info. However I noticed some differences. You said you submit application june 30 not aug. Could you also provide your country of origin and where you are living now? I appreciate your feedback.

I'm hoping you, and Tomorisu, and the rest of my fellow 2012ers hear good news SOON!

And you're smart. I SOOOOOO wish I'd changed my name. Who knows how long it will be before I finally have everything in my legal, married name?!? At least next summer, if not later.

Thank you
I have signed for the list but go to silent for a long time.
Because when we send the application for CIC, we use the lawyer service so we give them our application in June 2012 but after they organized our application again, they said they actually sent it to CIC in August 2012. (that what they said)
Anyway, they said the date is count from the day CIC send us the AOR so we just confused in this point because our AOR is Nov 19, 2012
My country of origin is Vietnam
And I lived in Toronto now
Thank you for update my info
