Hi MarisaMS,

No, I didn't. What I would advise you is not to apply together. You could do what I did.

a. Applied for my permit.
b. When I got my permit, we applied for my wife Visitor Visa.
c. Applied for SOWP from inside Canada. That way I have my family with me, while we were waiting for visa results.

Hope this helps, Let me know if you need any other detail
Thanks, this is a good suggestion. I cannot use it though, as my husband's visitor visa will definitely be refused. He had a few rejections already, I read his GCMS notes, it looks hopeless. Maybe other people in this forum will be able to take your route.

Hello guys ,
please help me , I have made my GC account and answered questions for OWP but the forms which are available for me which i need to upload does not show a place to upload any proof of relationship. Since my spouse is on SWP and I want to upload our marriage cert and pics. Where shall I upload?
