I am super confused, Why they open my case so many times!!!!
 
They're asking about the OWP program for sponsored spouses, not for foreign workers.
maybe read their post again? :)
they’re asking for OWP where the sponsor is holding WP (not PR or citizen)

...i don't think this is a thing, is it?
pretty sure you can't sponsor someone unless you're either a Citizen, registered under the Indian act, or a PR.

Some people use the term "sponsor" incorrectly. Like that member who asked a question on SOWP and he/she said he's not PR or citizen.
(foreign worker)
So he/she is just applying SOWP for spouse. Not sponsoring.

What are the GUs you have been observing? tracker with updated date or GCKey with status "application updated"?
 
maybe read their post again? :)

No, they're literally not asking that. They said they can only find answers for that situation, not the PR sponsorship situation. They confirmed that in their reply to you.

your comment was a bit misleading, also because it's literally everywhere in this forum and i was confused why you couldn't get a definite answer?
anyway, it's valid for 2 years unless your passport is expired before that

my bad, you think they "confirmed" that but they just repeated the same thing
sorry for my confusion

My husband got P1 this morning! Replied immediately, so we'll see when P2 comes.
