Spouse Open Work permit
- Thread starter ashub
- Start date
Hey, Mine is same as yours. But i got my online account updated as "approval" first and then they asked me to send passport.
guys, i am A PR HOLDER and have applied for spousal SPONSORSHIP for my husband, can i still apply for Open work permit for him .. has any one done that, he lives outside canada.
thanks
I think you can, your husband does not need to wait for the approval of his PR. The new rule allows him to apply for work permit. You may want to do some check on the CIC websit for details.

no he can't. he has to have a valid status in canada for you to apply an open work permit WITH your spousal sponsorship. outland sponsorships are not eligible for owp.
Here my SOWP Timeline:
Applied on April 5/17 online application
On June 3 received medical request
June 5 medical done
June 14 passed medical
June 21 received passport request
June 21 passport submitted to Chandigarh vfs.
Now waiting to get back visa stamped passport.
Thanks to all. Good luck everyone

Hi I have filed student visa for my wife and dependent(open work permit) for myself on 19th of June 2017 at banglore VFS.
We both are working in Infosys Mysore for last 4.5 years. She is a CS Engineer and my self from mechanical background.
Classes are starting on 5th of sept 2017
Applied course name: Information technology solutions(Humber College)
Duration : 2 Years
Docs
What is the probability of getting approval?
Will we get both together?
Is there a chance of approving student visa and rejecting the dependent visa?
How long it will take to process?
Someone please help me on this...

There was a new rule launched in 2016 that allows sponsored spouses to apply for open work permits. Further research may be required, though. See link below.

her husband lives outside canada therefore they will be applying for an outland sponsorship. to be eligible for OWP, your spouse should be living with you in canada in the same address with a valid immigration status AND you must apply PR sponsorship from inside canada. it's called applying under spouse or common-law partner in Canada class (SCLPC) they started this pilot program way before 2016, i think 2014-ish.

LINKING PAPER APPLICATON TO MYCIC
Hey all,
My wife submitted paper application on June 20, 2017 from VSF Delhi.
I tried to link her application on MyCIC, but the application cannot be found. When I check the status of the application on VSF website, it says: "...is being processed at the Canada Visa Office."
Does anyone know how long it takes for a paper based application to be visible online?
Thanks

Search it with less information, if you fill all the columns, you wont be able to find that. So fill the mandatory fields only.
I filled only the mandatory fields, but still can't find the application online. How long does it take for a paper application to be visible online?
