Thanks for your reply.
I’m finding difficulty creating online profile for spouse work permit in CIC website. Can you help me with it?
Me and my husband applied together online. Once you open the cic website go to Sign in creation> Create GC key.. You can create your ID and password. Your email will be linked to it. Keep all the scan copies ready. There will be many questions and one by one you have to upload. You can save it and complete your application, once all documents are uploaded. There will be instructions as and when you click "Next". Hope this helps you.

Hi
Where do they display the date of application they are working on?
I applied in August and have not got any updates at all.
Hello,
Click on check processing times. It will ask what type of visa you are applying. If its spouse work permit then click on "Work permit extension (new employer)

Hello,
We applied for my wife's SOWP (with upfront medicals) on Oct 21 online since she is in Canada as a visitor. We haven't got any update yet. Do you know the processing time if you apply from within Canada?

Am also apply open work permit 17 june but still not rply .am apply online .
Hi,
I too had applied online on May 25th 2017 and got approval on Nov 26th. You may have to wait around 6 months. Try using the webform of IRCC. Make sure you have attached all the documents including the optional ones as they will not inform you what is missing.

Hey Tin,

I have also applied for spousal open work permit on 17th July & It says the file being processes to the Bangalore visa office. They told my wife 9 weeks as a processing time but it's been 15 weeks & still I'm waiting for the medical request... I'm also hoping for the best & you know the worst part is they are having call centers and email-Id given on Vfs website but they are saying the same thing which we can see on tracking page... So there's no use of contact details....

Hi,

I am having an active PR Status and left Canada, only 10 days after my first landing due to personal reasons. However, now I am going back to Canada on Feb'18 to start afresh. My status at the time when PR was granted was single and now I am married.

I had recently applied for the wife's TRV and that has been granted and visa stamped (visit visa valid until passport expires).

She is flying with me to Canada in Feb'18, wherein I will be on a PR entry and she will be accompanying me on her visitor visa.

A few queries that I have are as follows:
1. In case I am on a PR and she is on a Visitor Visa. Will there be any issues that we might face at the Canadian Border Immigration?

2. Can I apply for her Open Work Permit (OWP) as soon as we land in Canada, without having to actually wait for, to apply for her PR application?

Post reading through this thread, I could find that there are mentions to get the OWP right when you make entry at the airport. Is that possible?

Can someone please help.

Thanks!!

This isn't unusual. Processing can take a number of months and what you're experiencing is normal. Unfortunately there's really nothing you can do but wait.
