I am travelling in the next couple of days with my wife. I am on SOWP and I just need to be sure that I do not need an authorization letter from IRCC.
Anyone travelled recently with spouse can share their experience.
 
My airlines Etihad Airways has dropped the bomb on me at the 11th hour saying I need an authorization letter to travel together. I dont know where to run to now. Please help anyone!

Hi

We were able to check in and travel to Toronto. The entire immigration process at the Toronto airport went very smoothly.

Thanks so much. So you did not need any written authorisation? Did you have to explain anything to the airline?

Appreciate your help!
 
Can you please help us by telling that if you get travel authorization after your initial refusal by etihad.

Please help
