1. You do not need IMM5409 because you are married, you do not need IMM5476 if you don't use a representative. You do not need to include them in the application or put NA on the checklist.

2. Yes.

Be sure to pay the full amount of $255 for the OWP, which includes the new `Permit Holder' fee ($100).

Many people forget the additional fee and have had their OWP returned. Don't be one of them.;)

The work permit the applicant recieves during the inland sponsorship process is an open work permit. It can be used to work pretty much anywhere and no forms from an employer are needed.

Hi,

We applied for the in canada common-law sponsorship and sent the open work permit at the same time. This on Feb 10th 2016. No news or status received so far...My common-law is Mexican but is living in Canada for now 2 years with consecutive 1 year student/work visa.... I am natural born canadian.

Would anyone know what is the processing time we should expect for the open work permit to be received?

Thank you - much appreciated any help on this.

Thanks

Since it's an open work permit under common law - you are looking around 4 months.
