Mine expires on 1/05, If nothing will be received by at least weeks before, I'll apply to extend(but from what I've read two months shall be enough).
Finger crossed and good luck

I wish it takes only 6 weeks, I wrote yesterday that somebody's waiting 3-4months.
Fingers crossed for all

Hi guys I need your advice or suggestion. I submitted last January 23 for spousal inland with OWP. And me and my husband got married after 6 months of relationship here in Canada. My work permit expired February 11,2019. However, my provincial nomination result came out February 8 and went to the border got my work permit extended for 2 years. The question is should I proceed my SPOUSAL INLAND APPLICATION (12months) Or go to PROVINCIAL NOMINEE PROGRAM which is 15-19 months waiting time ? I was worrried that they might put a RED FLAG on my spousal since I submitted it with only few days of expiration of my work permit and that would make my spousal application too long to get approval. I have to think because my nomination certificate will expire in 6 months too.

P.S. I already sent to them the SINP provincial nominations certificates and new work permit too in case they might scrutinized my spousal application .

Questions:
1.) best pathway SPOUSAL INLAND or PROVINCIAL NOMINEE?

2.) if I have received a OWP does that mean that i am Approval in Principle already?

3.) how long does it usually take before I can received an AOR?

Thank you

Approval in principle happens at the end of the process, about a month or so before you get your PR. AOR can take up to three months to receive.

If you got married after only 6 months of relationship, expect extra scrutiny for your spousal application.

That is what i am thinking too. So should I just start with my PROVINCIAL NOMINEE PR Then? I know I submitted my spousal already but to be safe I would rather go with the Provincial
nomination.. or should I wait for AOR before I will apply. I know there are some documents that were returned because of incomplete application. I wonder how long would that take coz if it’s beyon 3 months I will also apply for my PR via provincial nomination so that I can have AOR before my provincial nomination expires.

Hey np08,

Out of interested...
OWP processing starts after I receive the AOR or it starts when they receive it in mail? In other words when does the processing time starts...
Thanks

When the application is received. The 12 month average for the PR app and 3-4 month average for the OWP both start when they receive the app, not from AOR.
