Yes, there are many instances of this happening. Study permit approval does not guarantee SOWP approval.

So you mean, even if SP and SOWP are applied at the same time, once SP is approved, it wont guarantee SOWP approval?

You should review the changes to avoid any surprises.

Correct.

Thank you! Just a follow up question, when they review SOWP extension application of an international student's spouse, do they require that the SOWP holder should be employed in an in-demand skill? Or does not matter at all?
