on SOWP - Divorced

[sahir77]

Hi,
We came to Canada in 2024. My wife is a student, and I am on a Spouse Open Work Permit (SOWP). After 2 months, we got separated. I have one year of IT experience. Can I apply for a Permanent Residency (PR)? If so, do I need to inform IRCC about the separation? Please guide me.

You can apply for PR. Yes, you will need to indicate that you are separated in your PR application.

You should be speaking with a lawyer since your case is very complicated: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/assault-case-path-to-pr.833974/
