Couple of questions re my application

Also recommend, your OWP will get sent to your Canadian address so your husband needs to sent it to you in the UK ASAP; its better to have that when crossing the border than saying "It's at my house". Also photocopy it and send it via registered mail (meaning you have to sign for it); learned that lesson the hard way.

Good point, thanks. I did ask him to send me a scan of it when it arrives but I'll get him to courier the hard copy to me in UK too.

Just to update my thread, border control let me in without any issues. Just merely asked "what is the purpose of your visit" to which I replied: "my husband is Canadian and I'm in the middle of a spouse visa application". He just smiled and waved me through. So the work permit is still valid and I've since obtained a social insurance number and opened a Canadian bank account. Relief!

That's a relief.
