Hi

Hi can you please tell the documents to apply for sowp as I got refusal on the grounds of


You have been unable to adequately demonstrate that you meet the requirements of a
spousal open work permit under section 205(c)(ii) of the Regulations.

Also can my spouse apply for sowp if I as a student still here in my home country ??

If my spouse got sowp refusal can he apply for normal visitor visa?
Best would be you arrive in canada start your studies and then reapply after couple of months.
Can you please share your timeline.
It was a online or offline application?

So did you travel with your spouse or she went there -> you then applied -> and got it?
In my case, my spouse got her study visa stamped -> Some consultancies are telling that she has to go first -> stay there for 6 months -> I shall apply later.
So kindly let me know if both can travel together and what are the requirements (financial and other) for SOWP?

Hi Manpreet ,

it happens many time that SOWP get refused because of 205c (ii). I have seen numerous cases and also get through them. Yes you can apply again and get throgh it. Before that needs to check whats your current status is.
