Any updates on AOR? The government is shut down today

Anyone know anything about applying for OWP at a port of entry? Scenario would be (but isn’t yet) my spouse has returned to England due to the lengthy process for his OWP and he needs to work, but my question is if we get AOR along with OWP application number can he try and apply at the port of entry when he comes back instead of waiting the 11 weeks for current processing? I have spoken to IRCC they said he could try. Just wondering if anyone knows how it works?

As my knowledge, if you already granted work permit and need to print it and again the port entry in aiport that able to suport it is in Toronto airport only.
The other expert can giving their oppinion..

I'm not sure about the numbers but the majority of inland applicants don't get to live "full time" with their partners. Me personally I was visiting my husband for a few months and then I was coming back to my country. This year I've decided to move to Canada for good. So the question is - are you planning to stay in Canada for good now ? If yes, I'd recommend going with inland application. You have mentioned that you have a child together and been married for 4 years? I don't have an access to inland forms at this moment but I think that you meet the conditions for not having to show proof of your relationship. I think you would still have to go with showing some proof of shared expenses. You having a visa is a good thing. You have to maintain your status as a visitor till you get your open work permit. It doesn't matter much that you came here in August. As long as you have some proof that your husband was visiting you and you were visiting him. It's all good. Like I mentioned before I don't think you will have to show the proof of your relationship since you have been married for 4 years and have a child together. I'd recommend going with inland application if you have decided to stay in Canada.

I applied for my wife from within Canada on 8th Feb and got the AOR in email today.

Hi what is AOR please ?

 

[Kamranria]

We are currently still waiting for AOR we applied inland October 16th currently the timeline for AOR is approx 2 months. Once you get that the OWP application is supposed to be submitted by CIC and that current wait time is 11 weeks. So from what I can gather the time line is roughly 5 months from delivery of app to CIC to work permit issuance. And total time for PR is 12 months from date of AOR.
My spouse is British and he is heading back to England today. We were told that as long as we have a valid ETA he can travel and they will process his application as submitted. So he can be out of the country for part of the process. You can only have a health card if you are working and your current permit is still valid. Most provincial medical programs do not acknowledge implied status. So if this is the case short term travel insurance is always a good idea.
Hope this helps

Hi thanks

 

[Kamranria]

As my knowledge processing owp is around 4months. On my case, it took longer, coz of my own mistake, in beginning i paid $155 so my application been returned (took a month). Once received it, i paid another $100 than i send it again to Mississauga instead of Vegrevile ( I live in Alberta). My husband received AIP, 2 weeks before my CoPR

Hi !

So does it take 4 months to get your OWP from the moment you get your AOR? or the moment you send it out?
I made the same mistake. Will probably get my OWP back. Still waiting on my AOR though.
So, when I get it back i should send it to Vegrevile right?

Hi, also did the same thing just paid $100 for the OWP Fee. My application was received last Sept 27. Pls keep us posted of status of your OWP-- whether they returned it or deducted the lacking amount from the the PRRF. Thanks!

Since i made a mistake so my application of PR and OWP become separated in process (PR on Mississauga and OWP on Vegreville- bcs i live in Alberta province)
OWP
The time processing was 4months after I re-sent it.
PR
I got my AOR by email 4weeks after they received my PR app - I tracked it tru Canada Post
