Thanks for the answers

I have another question. Through my application I want to apply for Open work permit for my spouse.
I answer all the question and application is taking me to the part where I upload documents.
But in the section for my spouse there is:


Purpose of travel - Other

The info for this section is:

You must provide documents supporting the purpose of your travel to Canada. Examples include: proof of educational study, wedding invitations, proof of a medical appointment, notification of death, funeral notice, etc.

What do I need to upload here?
Or maybe I am answering some of the questions wrong?
Maybe I shouldn't be getting this section.

Good Day!
I just applied online application 2 days ago as a TFW with LMO. (NOC 6242)
Received confirmation page the same day.
The next day on MYCIC account there is another section under apply online stated,
Make a Request: OCWP - Request an EVN or a Transfer of Eligibility Verification.
Is this mandatory or optional.
I'm not going to school to Canada.
But CIC posted it to MYCIC.
Do I need to complete it and transmit it online.
Is it applicable to me.
I'm confuse.
Please help me guys.I need your your advise.
Thanks in advance.
God Bless!

Hi,
I have applied for my wife for an OWP online. We have applied through CHC Islamabad. I am an international student who has been accepted at a Canadian university and have obtained my visa for Jan 2014 as well.

I wanted to ask if the processing time of my wife is around 8 months as mentioned for WP applications on CIC website for CHC islamabad or is it 51 days for TRV.

I am not sure about this as this is an OWP and not a closed WP, so this application might be treated differently. Maybe someone can clarify this.

Thanks.

Hi! disappointed10,
Thanks for the response.
I will do nothing about OCWP.

I received my LMO almost 3.5 months.
I got my job offer last week of May.
And I received my LMO Sept. 14, 2013. Alberta.

Thanks again.

Work permit processing times depend upon where you are in the world. Currently that time is reduced to 7 days for online applications submitted INSIDE Canada.

So if you are residing any where else in the world and apply, the processing time for your country of residence would apply. They are listed here

fritz, just pursue your online application..then in your application form question no. 7 used your current address in KSA, question no. 9 put your address in the philippines..so in this way, when the CIC requested your passport you have to option where to send in KSA or philippines.

Hope it helps

Good luck
