It will be approved after you get AIP.
 
I believed "approved in principal" do you have an idea how long does it takes to be mail it ?

What does AIP stands for ? Thank you

Your wife's sponsor approval is the stage before your AIP (Approval in principle). That means you meet the criteria to apply for a PR. Once you have that, they will issue the OWP. From what I have seen lately for timing, the AIP is within a couple days of SA.

I am not sure where you can find it. My guess is if you set up myCIC and link to your account with your UCI, it may be associated to your UCI.

I meant more about checking online for AIP...
 
Yeah for some reason I'm not been able to link mycic account with my application it never finds my application . I already contacted cic technical support and they were not helpful at all . in hoping for the best . thank you again
 
I already received the letter saying i meet the criteria to be a permanent resident of Canada . I just want to know how long usually it takes to get my open work permit . I applied for the owp when I sent my pr application more than a year ago, sorry I wasn't clear to began with.

Then you can call the Call Centre to ask when they will be issuing the OWP. From what I understand, they should have held it until your AIP was completed.
