Suyash you have been a saving grace. I applied solely with your videos and also got my AOR today. After the Almighty, my partner and my parents, you were the only one I relied on for this matter. Thank you, you have the blessings from many like us! Sorry this is all I could afford now
Hello, I have a question. What I should mark in number 3 of the first part if I am on a WHV Open work permit that expires in some weeks, but I am applying for an Open Work permit through my girlfriend's high-skilled work sponsorship? I don´t know if it would be "Apply for a work permit for the first time or with a new employer" or not, since while I am in an open work permit, I have never applied to that, it is "Intrinsically" included in the WHV.
Hai, I have a doubt . Plz help me … I am a student. I have applied visitor visa for my parents by watching ur videos… bt I got a mistake that my father’s first and last name got interchanged …. I came to know about it when they went for biometrics …The officer in VFS have done it right and update the biometrcs…he told my father to raise a webform to let ircc know about this now… bt is it inside canada or outside canada ..? How could I do that..? Could u plz help me with instructions …?
Hi , I am calling my wife on a visitor visa . She got the visa before we got married. Would it be safe to mention to the immigration officer that she is visiting her spouse?
Just to clarify for anyone looking for the document number on your work permit (this confused me too) -- Its on the top right hand side, without a label. It is NOT the number following the Application/Demande label. And like he mentioned, both of these start with a letter followed by 9 numbers, so its tricky to know which is the right one. Just thought I'd leave this here :)
Hi Suyash, thank you for the detailed videos. It really helps. I wanted to bring this to your attention, on May 23, 2024, the Instructions Page for OWP has been updated with this specific bullet point that specifies that AOR received by the Spouse cannot be used be the Principal Applicant to apply for OWP. "The AOR must be for your permanent resident application. You can’t use the AOR your sponsor received when they applied to sponsor you. " Wondering if you have any update or details on how to proceed further for OWP given this update. Thanks
I just wanted to say that you have been an amazing online friend helping us through this process and being exxtra detailed. Knowing someone and others in the comments are going through similar processes and having someone explain to you how to do it helps. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. Wish you the best ❤❤❤😊😊
Hi Suyash, I had applied for my wife's OWP earlier in August without an AOR since she met the eligibility criteria considering her status was expiring in less than 2 weeks. We just received an AOR today so do we need to submit the AOR through a webform to IRCC or not?
My wife just got approved for open work permit. No further information or steps to do, I read that they will mail the work permit. We can see the OWP number and it says "valid". Does it mean she can start working now or we need to get the actual printed OWP by mail? Thank you
Hello, My study permit is expiring in end of this month. I got an AOR for spousal PR Inland. Am I eligible for applying Open work permit?? But when I tried giving answers in GC key it is not showing me that I can apply for open work permit if I put my immigration status as student. However, If i put my immigration status as visitor then I can apply for open work permit. What do I do to maintain my status in Canada????
I have the same issue ! I actually submitted an inquiry to IRCC and they just replied to me answering absolutely none of my questions... I was thinking of calling them to ask an agent but I am dreading the waiting on hold for an hour. What did you end up doing ? Please let me know!
@@aliceguillot5146 Hi! I have the same issue and was wondering if you received an answer ? I found online that as a temporary resident you can apply for owp and that if you are student, that you should place "worker" as a temporary measure. However this was for a the temporary resident to pr pilot that is no longer valid, but it does say you can still apply for work permit. any information helps!
@@VictoriaMurillo-yb4ms I'm not sure what you mean by worker as a temporary measure. I just called ircc and talked to a guy. I told him the questionnaire is flawed and he said he would send me an email with information that would let me bypass the questionnaire. After I hung up I received an email with a link to the guide to apply for a work permit, but it doesn't bypass the questionnaire at all, I just don't think he understood what I meant... I guess I will make the application and either put visitor or worker in the status question, I know I am not eligible for a postgraduate permit at all so if I put student there is no way I can make an application for owp... Please let me know what you do and if you have more info!
Hands down, you create the most clear and detailed video about IRCC on you tube. Your guidance has helped me to complete all of my applications. One question though...will my dependent kids(who is above 18)need to fill this form as well?
Hey for some reason when I land on this page i only get 2 options. - Express Entry - International Experience Canada I am NOT getting the option of - Visitor Visa, Study and/or Work PermitDid anyone face this issue? Or Do i select one of these options. Not sure if im in the right place.
i was facing the same issue.. you must have an application started already when you went in once and came out.. you should see it under your applications.. just delete that and it will reappear.
Thanks allot for perfect videos on everything.. I am able to myself all applications on my own with help of your videos... Appreciate your efforts and help everyone.. any video on applying Visitor record to stay more than 6 months for my spouse
Quick question please, in the section " details of intended work in canada" you said to copy SCLPC - FC OWP” in the Job title box. but it says dashes like - are not allowed on the form. also when I look at how to complete form IMM5710, in the same section it says to just leave question 2 to 8 empty which is that Job title box part. Should I leave it empty or do as you say and copy what's on that page because it is also still there on their website, but again dashes are not allowed so im a bit confused, thank you
This urgent, i have a question, please help me answer. I am principal applicant (being sponsored), my application has been under processing for 7 months already and I am about to apply for this owp. I couldn't find AOR for myself. It says i can't use AOR my sponsor received when he applied to sponsor me. The AOR must be my permanent resident application. How can i find AOR?!
Hi Suyash, Thank you very much for the informative video. I have a question I hope you can clarify. If an applicant has submitted an OUTLAND permanent residency application through the spousal sponsorship program and is currently in Canada on a visitor visa, and they have also applied for a spousal open work permit while in Canada and are awaiting a decision, can the applicant stay in Canada under maintained status until a decision is made on the work permit application even if their visitor visa expires before that. I’m asking because I’ve seen some websites mentioning that maintained status applies to inland sponsorship applications, and I’m unsure if this applies to OUTLAND spousal sponsorship applications as well. Could you please clarify and share any links to an official website where I can find more information? Thanks again for your help!
Hi thanks for this video i have a Question: how to provide proof that applicant on visitor status is living with sponsor what documents could be used as proof
Hi. Can someone help me out here. After my work permit expired I applied for my visitor visa and I'm on visitor status right now. I have received my ITA yesterday but now I have made a decision to get married to my boyfriend who is a PR. I want to know which process is quicker and easier and in which I'll be able to start working sooner. Thanks.
I applied for pgwp and waiting for the work permit so while waiting can i apply for spouse work permit extension as he is in canada and do i need job letter to apply or i can apply without job letter ?
Hi, as u always give a good suggestion i want to know this question...i have passed my medical exam for my PR non express applctn....at the time of AOR my eligibility review was started so therefore i raised a webform to know the current status of application..bt i receive very general response mean their was no visa office mention in it and everystep detail was also not mentioned... is it normal ir what is the meaning of their response...actually i search people receive comments like eligibilty passed etc
Thank you for your videos. I have a question, if I currently have a work permit and I applied to the inland sponsorship in September 2023 and now I want to apply for the Open Work Permit to continue to work while my PR is approved, should I select the same option under Q3: Apply for a work permit for the first time or with a new employer? or should I select restore my status as a worker instead? I appreciate your guidance. Thank you.
What if both of our pr applications are in process (single application myself inland and spouse outland). She travelled canada on visitor visa, can i apply for open wp for her ? I have a valid wp
I have received my copr and i will be travelling to canada with copr. My wife will be travelling to canada as a visitor visa with me. so once we reach there we can apply for her open work permit as inland right ( just like this video )? I got married after copr that's why. Also, how long will it take to get the open work permit. Please do reply
Hi Suyash, firstly I would like to thank you for your support through PR application videos on youtube which helped me a lot to file for my wife as an Outland Spousal Sponsorship application under Family Class. Now, my wife already got her AOR and she did her medical and biometrics as well. Her eligibility criteria and security background check is also updated to COMPLETED and after that there is no update since 4 months now and we are waiting for her COPR since 4 months. Now if she wants to come to Canada on TRV, there are high chances that her application would be accepted. But what if she comes to Canada and meanwhile she gets her COPR. Then, how does that work because this is an outland application and her file is being processed from New Delhi office. Will she has to send passport for stamp or she will directly get her PR card? Thank you again 😊
Its not an issue. If she is in canada already and gets her ppr, she can inform ircc about her presence in canada and they’ll switch her process to virtual landing. All instructions will be in the ppr letter she will receive once she gets approved.
Hi Suyash, I love everything about the video. No one explained every aspect with this much clarity. Thank you for putting in so much effort. Much appreciated brother. Question: I am currently awaiting decision on my PR application under Common law in Canada class and my open work permit is expiring in 30 days from now. When should I apply for WP extension, before 2 weeks of expiry or right now?
How long does it take to get the open work permit? Also what if if traveled out of Canada for a week to renew your Temporary residency on visit status do they start counting from the initial first date of entry or second date of entry
Watching this Video is so reassuring !!! as I begin my application, You really help in connecting all the loose ends, and open-ended situations so thoroughly. Thank you so much for making these videos, its really helpful.
All of your videos are very clearly explained and detailed. Appreciate your talent and the support you provide to everyone stuck with doubts regarding their visa applications ! Well done and thank you Suyash 👏😊
Hey bro I really appreciate your videos, they helped a lot!!! Just another quick question: if my common-law partner has a valid study permit but is no longer in school, do we still select 'student' as the current immigration status? Because after all the procedures we went through honestly, it only allows us to select Temporary Resident Visa for some reason. Waiting for your reply! Thx!
you are amazing! thank you so much for the videos, they are the best, and it helped me so many times for different applications. Thank you, God bless you!
Hi, Thanks a lot for this video it is very usefull. But I have a question. My Wife is now in Canada as a visitor, but as at the airport they didn't give us a visitor record, they didn't stamp her passport either what should I put as a proof of valid temporary resident status ? the visa itself ?
Everyone's already said so but I have to add to the praise - thank you so much for another clear and concise video! Filling up this type of paperwork is always so daunting, but you made it incredibly easy and to the point - makes me wish they'd hire you to rework their website and clarify the process for everyone who needs it...!! Thank you x100
Thank you very much Mr. Suyesh for this very informative video. One week before you released this video, I had just received my AOR that was sent thru my wife last January 26, 2024. We don't know what it is nor what it does to my spousal sponsorship PR application. I had a hard time researching that it is what AOR looks like for spousal sponsorship because my wife went to a different PR track (TR to PR for health workers). So when I have identified it because of your video, I immediately used it to apply for work permit extension, even though my OWP expires this May (I had 1 year PGWP). Let me tell you that your videos had my been my guide, my EXCLUSIVE knowledge-base to navigate the IRCC's convulated, unstructured, tedious, and very confusing system. Even the "guides" web pages are hardly useful! I think IRCC should either hire you to create explanation videos for them or outright buy the rights to your videos and put them in the IRCC website in order to facilitate understanding of their process.
Hi I wanted to ask a question about the sponsor eligibility. Is the spouse of primary applicant(filed for PR under Express Entry) eligible to sponsor the new partner after divorcing the first partner. I believe waiting period is applicable to neither of both since they both were applied together for PR through Express Entry. Kindly share if you have source to support the explanation
I think if the applicant is living in Canada, they don't need to provide imm5707,. Am I right? Because I saw on the IRCC websitethat it says ''Who needs to fill out this form? This form must be filled out by each person, 18 years of age or older, applying for a Temporary Resident Visa, a study or work permit outside Canada.''
No, its a special requirement for OPW application as part of spousal sponsorship and yes must be filled out by applicants living inside canada. Go through the OPW page again, this form is required for spousal sponsorship applicants who want to apply for OPW. They’ll reject your application if you don’t provide this form as part of OPW under spousal sponsorship stream.
Please for the question that says, Have you previously applied for entry and remain in Canada? I checked No instead of yes by mistake And now the SOWP Application was submitted a month ago and i found out the mistake so what would i do in this case ? Thank you for your guidance
Hey! Great Video. I have quick question if you could reply that would be amazing! My partner's SOWP expired and she is out of status. We have applied to "Restoration of Status" and "Inland Spousal PR" where I (PR) am the sponsor. Her "Restoration of Status" application is still processing. Can we apply for OWP? If we can apply then what should be the expiry date for the current status expiry question? Would highly appreciate your reply
Hi, could you confirm whether the tracking of spouse open work permit is through this GC Key too? i tried the application status tracker, but for some reason i can't create an account, in spite of keying in my UCI and SOWP application no.
Would you mind confirming if we still can get OWP without AOR? Clearly the public policy express: If you didn’t receive your AOR and you meet the requirements, upload both of the following instead: 1. Copy of your work permit, study permit or visitor record and 2. Proof showing you’ve submitted your permanent residence application (for example, the email we sent you confirming that you’ve successfully submitted your permanent residence application) Can you please explain it further?
Hi I have a questions I am here as a permanent resident and my wife came to Canada as a visitor then I apply for her permanent residence she did her medical , but her visitor visa will be expired on September 4 2024 at this time can I apply open work permit for her ? Plz answer me
Thank you for your videos, they are really helpful. I have a question, please. We are submitting the PR application in a couple of days but my spouse's work permit expires in 20 days, can we apply for the work permit before receiving the AOR using the PR submission confirmation email? And if so would he have an implied status to stay and work in Canada. I am worried as I heard from some that he should extend his status as a visitor which is confusing since he still has an OWP for another 20 days which we are trying to maintain. Would applying to extend a stay as a visitor interfere with what we are trying to do?
Hi! Can i delete and re upload again the imm5532 in the portal? Because i forgot to sign the declaration. Btw i didn’t submit the application form yet. I just upload it. Thanks
I am planning to apply open work permit for H1-B visa holder's spouse. The H1-B visa holder already has open work permit. How much is the required fund proof in this category? We have 2 US citizen kids.
Hi! Genuine question, my work permit expires at on June 3rd and I have just submitted my SOWP today. After June 3rd, I'll be on maintained status, that does mean I can still continue working at my current job?
Hello, in Valid status, is it okay to scan the Visa in my passport? Is that acceptable? I don't have visitor record coz I just arrived in Canada 1 Month ago..
Great Video Suyash! My wife is in India and am thinking of applying for her spousal PR while she is there in India only . She also has a valid Canadian visitor visa at this point and my question is whether she can travel to Canada on visitor visa after we submit family class spousal PR application. Does she have to face any additional scrutiny by doing this way at port of entry like will she be judged as not going back to home country and be denied entry? We are planning to apply for Open work permit once she is here and what is the best path you can suggest like apply in family class or inland for spousal PR application ? Thank you :)
Hello, I would like to have a clarification on this application. I am having pgwp expiring soon, and my spouse pgwp expires next year. So I am planning to apply for sowp before my pgwp expiry. I am bit confused about the option to be selected among these. 1. Apply for work permit with same employer 2. Restore my status as a worker 3.Apply for work permit for the first time or new employer 4. Get a new temp resident permit Could you please help me.
Hello sir my husband received AOR.now i apply their work permit.i had to confirm that for their work permit application need any supporting documents from spouse side like bank documents or job documents.
I am a pgwp holder, I applied for my spousal sponsorship and got AOR email. Iam the principal applicant. As my work permit expires in June , I have to apply for spousal open work permit. So on question 3) which one should I select , apply for work permit under the same employer?(as current work permit is open work permit)
Hey! Do i need to attach any proves substantiating my physical presence in Canada when applying for SOWP? Do we need to attach proves of financial standing for SOWP?
Hello im confused can i ask you via watsapp? Im a have temporary resident visa.. my common law is single should i will be put in his PR PORTAL AS DEPENDANTS we dont have kids yet.. but i have kids on my previous marriage but already eligible so they just need the trv forms submitted
Hi! Do I really need to print and sign physically the 5707 Form or I can sign it digitally by typing my name and then save it as PDF? I don't have a name in native language. Thank you!
excellent video. I lived in Canada with my common-law partner. I want to extend my visa and work permit. since I need to leave the country for family issues. How would I extend the visitor visa? Should I make a different application?

Hi there please let me know as principal applicant is it okay to have no work experience for the past 10 years? all Unemployed should i put in there? It won't affect the work permit right? If so, my very first job will be in Canada. Thank you hope you notice or anyone can advise thank you
hello Bhai, We got approval in principal but have not status here, biometrics done, got sponsorship approval too, status expired more than 90 days, how can we apply for sowp as sponsor is PR and PA is out of status with over 90 days, please advise

Hi, I have applied for my Pr under non ee along with my husband. I am planning to apply his visitor visa shall I wait for AOR or I can still apply ? Please reply
Thanks a lot for the clear explanations. I was wondering why do the biometric fees show up in my case (since I already paid them in my sponsored PR application). Would really appreciate your answer 😊

Then, how does that work because this is an outland application and her file is being processed from New Delhi office. Will she has to send passport for stamp or she will directly get her PR card?
Thank you again 😊
Its not an issue. If she is in canada already and gets her ppr, she can inform ircc about her presence in canada and they’ll switch her process to virtual landing. All instructions will be in the ppr letter she will receive once she gets approved.
i LOVE your videos they are so perfectly detailed and they are literally saving mine and my partners relationship..and lawyer fees hahaha
A huge thank you!!! It's very helpful 🙏🙏🙏🙏
can i use my same ircc portal to create new application for TRV after i received AOR?
Plz reply when u get an answer, I also have my old IRCC portal.
Hi Suyash, I love everything about the video. No one explained every aspect with this much clarity. Thank you for putting in so much effort. Much appreciated brother.
Question: I am currently awaiting decision on my PR application under Common law in Canada class and my open work permit is expiring in 30 days from now. When should I apply for WP extension, before 2 weeks of expiry or right now?
You can do it as soon as possible
your video came out at the exact time we got AOR to submit for this! Thank you for your amazing and helpful content! :)
Glad it was helpful!
How much time did it take for you to receive AOR after the application? Please let me know it will be really helpful
A blessing! Thanks for your content !
Hey, what if spouse is on study permit ?
How long does it take to get the open work permit? Also what if if traveled out of Canada for a week to renew your Temporary residency on visit status do they start counting from the initial first date of entry or second date of entry

Hey bro I really appreciate your videos, they helped a lot!!! Just another quick question: if my common-law partner has a valid study permit but is no longer in school, do we still select 'student' as the current immigration status? Because after all the procedures we went through honestly, it only allows us to select Temporary Resident Visa for some reason. Waiting for your reply! Thx!
You got any update on this?
nope @@rajvirrai6939
Hi, I did not from him directly, but I what I found out is once u got pass the eligibility u can apply for open work permit.@@rajvirrai6939

Hi, Thanks a lot for this video it is very usefull. But I have a question.
My Wife is now in Canada as a visitor, but as at the airport they didn't give us a visitor record, they didn't stamp her passport either what should I put as a proof of valid temporary resident status ? the visa itself ?
If they didn't stamp the passport, it is automatic that the stay is valid for 6 months. Hope this helps. :)
Again, great video! I am sharing your channel with many people now that are asking questions about the whole process, keep up the good work!!!! 😀
Thank you 🙏🏻
Everyone's already said so but I have to add to the praise - thank you so much for another clear and concise video! Filling up this type of paperwork is always so daunting, but you made it incredibly easy and to the point - makes me wish they'd hire you to rework their website and clarify the process for everyone who needs it...!! Thank you x100
Wow, thank you!
How you megre your pdf in one pdf?
Thank you very much for this clear, detailed, and useful video !!!
please mention that the application is only for spouse living in Canada in the title. But great content, very helpful! :)
He mentioned that already in the video
Thank you very much Mr. Suyesh for this very informative video. One week before you released this video, I had just received my AOR that was sent thru my wife last January 26, 2024. We don't know what it is nor what it does to my spousal sponsorship PR application. I had a hard time researching that it is what AOR looks like for spousal sponsorship because my wife went to a different PR track (TR to PR for health workers). So when I have identified it because of your video, I immediately used it to apply for work permit extension, even though my OWP expires this May (I had 1 year PGWP).
Let me tell you that your videos had my been my guide, my EXCLUSIVE knowledge-base to navigate the IRCC's convulated, unstructured, tedious, and very confusing system. Even the "guides" web pages are hardly useful! I think IRCC should either hire you to create explanation videos for them or outright buy the rights to your videos and put them in the IRCC website in order to facilitate understanding of their process.
Thank you so much for the kind words 🙏
Did you get the open work permit and how much time did it take?
Omg the best video, very informative cleared all my doubts. Thank you so much . Will come back to this video when i start the process
Glad it was helpful!
THIS VIDEO IS GOLD! thankssss so much! This processes are so confused and I just found out I can apply for the WP!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you so so much!!!
Hi
I wanted to ask a question about the sponsor eligibility.
Is the spouse of primary applicant(filed for PR under Express Entry) eligible to sponsor the new partner after divorcing the first partner.
I believe waiting period is applicable to neither of both since they both were applied together for PR through Express Entry.
Kindly share if you have source to support the explanation
you solve all my inquiries here. Thank you !
Glad to hear that!
Thank you so much, this video is very helpful 👍
Glad it was helpful!
I followed this and got approval for open work permit in two weeks. Thank you.
Excellent!
Inland applications open work permit?
I think if the applicant is living in Canada, they don't need to provide imm5707,. Am I right?
Because I saw on the IRCC websitethat it says
''Who needs to fill out this form?
This form must be filled out by each person, 18 years of age or older, applying for a Temporary Resident Visa, a study or work permit outside Canada.''
No, its a special requirement for OPW application as part of spousal sponsorship and yes must be filled out by applicants living inside canada. Go through the OPW page again, this form is required for spousal sponsorship applicants who want to apply for OPW. They’ll reject your application if you don’t provide this form as part of OPW under spousal sponsorship stream.
@@HitSubmitCanada Thank you! I got it.
Please for the question that says, Have you previously applied for entry and remain in Canada?
I checked No instead of yes by mistake
And now the SOWP Application was submitted a month ago and i found out the mistake so what would i do in this case ?
Thank you for your guidance
Thank you so much for your video! Exactly what I was looking for! you saved my life.
Glad it helped!
Hi need some information regarding BOWP
HOW TO APPLY FOR BOWP WITH EXPIRED WORK PERMIT BUT ON MAINTAINED STATUS
Hey! Great Video. I have quick question if you could reply that would be amazing! My partner's SOWP expired and she is out of status. We have applied to "Restoration of Status" and "Inland Spousal PR" where I (PR) am the sponsor. Her "Restoration of Status" application is still processing. Can we apply for OWP? If we can apply then what should be the expiry date for the current status expiry question?
Would highly appreciate your reply
Is open work permit same as bowp? I have applied for my PR and open work permit. Do I have to apply for bridging open work permit?
Hi, could you confirm whether the tracking of spouse open work permit is through this GC Key too? i tried the application status tracker, but for some reason i can't create an account, in spite of keying in my UCI and SOWP application no.
Would you mind confirming if we still can get OWP without AOR?
Clearly the public policy express:
If you didn’t receive your AOR and you meet the requirements, upload both of the following instead:
1. Copy of your work permit, study permit or visitor record and
2. Proof showing you’ve submitted your permanent residence application (for example, the email we sent you confirming that you’ve successfully submitted your permanent residence application)
Can you please explain it further?
Hi I have a questions I am here as a permanent resident and my wife came to Canada as a visitor then I apply for her permanent residence she did her medical , but her visitor visa will be expired on September 4 2024 at this time can I apply open work permit for her ? Plz answer me
Anyone not able
To
Upload the form 5710
???? How
To
Fix ???
Is that ok apply for OWP whitout visa records? The visa it's gonna expire in 2 weeks. Application Without AOR too.
Thank you for your videos, they are really helpful. I have a question, please. We are submitting the PR application in a couple of days but my spouse's work permit expires in 20 days, can we apply for the work permit before receiving the AOR using the PR submission confirmation email? And if so would he have an implied status to stay and work in Canada. I am worried as I heard from some that he should extend his status as a visitor which is confusing since he still has an OWP for another 20 days which we are trying to maintain. Would applying to extend a stay as a visitor interfere with what we are trying to do?
Hi! Can i delete and re upload again the imm5532 in the portal? Because i forgot to sign the declaration. Btw i didn’t submit the application form yet. I just upload it. Thanks
I am planning to apply open work permit for H1-B visa holder's spouse. The H1-B visa holder already has open work permit. How much is the required fund proof in this category? We have 2 US citizen kids.
Hi! Genuine question, my work permit expires at on June 3rd and I have just submitted my SOWP today. After June 3rd, I'll be on maintained status, that does mean I can still continue working at my current job?
Hello, in Valid status, is it okay to scan the Visa in my passport? Is that acceptable? I don't have visitor record coz I just arrived in Canada 1 Month ago..
Great Video Suyash! My wife is in India and am thinking of applying for her spousal PR while she is there in India only . She also has a valid Canadian visitor visa at this point and my question is whether she can travel to Canada on visitor visa after we submit family class spousal PR application. Does she have to face any additional scrutiny by doing this way at port of entry like will she be judged as not going back to home country and be denied entry? We are planning to apply for Open work permit once she is here and what is the best path you can suggest like apply in family class or inland for spousal PR application ? Thank you :)
Hello,
I would like to have a clarification on this application.
I am having pgwp expiring soon, and my spouse pgwp expires next year. So I am planning to apply for sowp before my pgwp expiry.

1. Apply for work permit with same employer
2. Restore my status as a worker
3.Apply for work permit for the first time or new employer
4. Get a new temp resident permit
Could you please help me.
Hello sir my husband received AOR.now i apply their work permit.i had to confirm that for their work permit application need any supporting documents from spouse side like bank documents or job documents.

So on question 3) which one should I select , apply for work permit under the same employer?(as current work permit is open work permit)
Hi I got my biometric request before receiving AOR. Am I eligible to apply an open work permit yet?
Hey!

Do we need to attach proves of financial standing for SOWP?
