March 2023 Inland Spousal Sponsorship Applicants

[Bruzman]

I’m not sure either. Maybe someone here can help you clarify it.
I and my spouse received same email for the temporary application number.

If you check you see that the UCI are different but same application number.
Make sure to use the right UCI number when registering tracker account under either of your names.

March 1 application, AOR today. Applied for OWP today too, biometrics request received this evening.

how did you apply for the OWP as the principal applicant needs to receive AIP which means approval in principle to apply for OWP. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Please how did you apply for open work permit? I created an account but no where to apply

You actually need application on record, not approval in principle. Applied on March 25.

Thanks for this response.

I was only able to create an account on the PR tracker with the details sent to the sponsor email. PA didn't receive an email with the permanent UCI and Application number, only the temp one was sent to PA. We're at the stage where PA has completed medicals. Sponsor tracker still says "Application submitted".

Is there a better way to get more info on what is being done (background, etc), instead of a timeline that almost never updates?

Thanks.

Thank you

Please did you get a barcode when validated your work permit application form?

 

[riri207]

Please did you get a barcode when validated your work permit application form?

Yes I got a barcode when validated.

 

[Bruzman]

Yes I got a barcode when validated.

Did you use Firefox?. Because it's not opening with Adobe or Chrome

 

[riri207]

You need to first download the form. Then open it via Adobe.

Please how did you sign the form?

 

[riri207]

It clearly states you dont need to sign the form but just type your name

I'm very happy to see a Quebec file moving alone quickly! We applied March 12, CSQ, Medical and Biometrics are now all done.

Me too, received CSQ in April 10th, still waiting for the background verification, which is the last step for my case.
