SOWP PROCESSING TIME 2021

[fatima56]

@phaijalkhan Can you please briefly describe me on how can we expedite our process if our spouse is already in Canada. What should I mention in the email ? I have already completed 6 weeks from the day I gave my biometrics.

 

[Bijith]

I applied for my SOWP on 24 dec 2020 and completed my biometrics on 4th jan 2021 in Sydney (Indian passport holder residing in Australia) and my wife is in Canada. So how much time it takes to receive the Acknowledgment of receipt or submission confirmation?

Thanks for the info.
I have applied through an Immigration consultant & they are saying we can apply for Travel exemption after we receive PPR or SOWP, is it true?

Also can you provide any link or contact email id for making the application for expedite & travel exemption?

Thank you.

We too were refused

Hi can you please explain why you got refused we are also waiting for the sowp results since 1 month but no update yet can you please tell what was the reason for refusal

No

You should request for travel authorization only if you already had OWP approval, they require the trv stamped on your passport and the LOI which states you have been approved.

Thanks for the update.
My consultant also said me the same.
Apply for Travel Authorization after the SOWP Approval,
