May 2024 - Inland Spousal Sponsorship

You can't apply for OWP if you're out of status in Canada.

Not true. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...mmon-law-partner-canada-open-work-permit.html

You don’t have valid temporary resident status
If your permanent residence application is being processed under the spousal public policy, you must wait until you’ve received your approval in principle letter to be eligible to apply for an open work permit.

Hi everyone, is it true that you can only register on the tracker once the medical exam is completed? Thanks!

You can register on both tracker and cgkey once you get AOR (with your application no.)

Even with my Approval In Principle Letter?

HI Alex, I am trying, but I am stuck with what date to put for my status expiration date. I've received AIP. Do you have any experiences with this?

Even with my Approval In Principle Letter?

You can apply for OWP since you got AIP. Just apply. Once you get the OWP approval, you are back into a worker status while waiting for your PR approval.

What do I put for status expiration date? This is the block I've reached with the application.

I am not familiar with online forms these days. Does it allow you to put in the actual status expiration date? (like when your previous status expired, e.g. 6 months after entry if as a visitor)

Hi …has anyone who applied for owp gotten approved yet…just trying to figure out how long it takes for owp to come…

 

[aashikha]

Could anyone guide me what I can do? Our eligibility haven't even started yet and we have been waiting since June 12 AOR

maybe because the application was returned earlier so it was placed to the front of the queue when it was esubmitted?
there are also similar timeline dps to mine, some even faster: https://myimmitracker.com/en/ca/trackers/consolidated-spousal-sponsorship-tracker

regardless now the real wait game of background check begins...

update: I received SA letter instead of AIP.

I did just that and it didn't accept it, because of course, its been so long Then I did 6 months from the date of my AIP, but I feel that cant be correct.
