Please Please... help needed on Spouse Open work Permit

[priyankaj]

Dear All,

I live in Canada and have TRV(work visa) and work permit 1 year. My fiance lives in Delhi, India. He don't have any kind of visa or permit to come to Canada. Also he don't have any job offer from Canada's employer. I come to know that the fastest way for him to come here is to apply "Spouse open work permit". Please correct me if i am wrong that part. But if, I am correct, Can someone please give me detailed process to apply SOWP in Delhi. Or give my links where detailed information is available.

Its really important please do help. I will be really great full for all of the people for giving details

i don't believe your fiance would be eligible to come to canada as a spouse until you are actually married. Canada does not recognize fiances as legal spouses. tuntil you get married, the only way your fiance would be eligible for a work permit is to find a way to immigrate on their own.

Hello,
Thank you so much for prompt reply.
Yes i know we have to get married to get SOWP for him. I just want to know the process once we get married to apply it

Probably it will be best if i'll give all details that I know and then You can guide me where I am wrong.

I am thinking to apply his SWOP via VFS office in Delhi, India.
He has to fill following forms,
1) IMM1295 form (for open work permit)
2) IMM5645 form (Family information) ?
Is this form is only will will be filled by him. OR do i have to fill it too separately?

3) IMM5753 form (Medical form)?
while applying via VFS office do he have to fill this form or not

4) medical certificate ?
Please guide me on this as i dont know whether he have do medical exam before applying or after submit application. While going into hospital for medical does he have to have a specific receipt or document which will show that it is for immigaration

5) IMM 5257 form (Application TRV) ?
Is he have to submit this form at time of applying SOWP? Do I have to fill and submit this form along with his application?

6) Attach copy of his passport and photographs
7) Birth certificate
8) Police Certificate ?
He can get the police certificate from India. Though he lived around 8 months in UK. Does he have to provide the Police certificate from there also? Is police certificate is mandatory in SOWP? If yes, then how long it is valid 3 months or 12 months?

9) Ielts General score sheet
10) His Joining letter of current employer and salary slip
11) His experience letter from previous company, salary slip from previous company
12) Bank Statement for past six months

My Documents
1) Invitation Letter on his name
2) Attach copy of his passport and photographs
3) copy of work permit and work visa canada
4) Birth certificate
5) Police Certificate
6) Master Degree from Canada Transcript and certificate of completion
7) Ielts General score sheet

Our documents

2) Photographs
3) My Flight ticket during our marriage time

Please guide me
1) Is there any other document require to submit SOWP ?
2) Once me submit above written document for SWOP permit then do he have to apply separately for work visa?
3) How long it will take in processing after submitting the the application
4) which method is better online or applying via Delhi VFS office

You should post your question to the Foreign Workers section of the forum. This is where you will find all of the discussions relating to SOWP. The section you are posting in now is actually for Canadians who are sponsoring family members for PR.
