congratulationsHello - thought I would share my timeline:
Jan 19th: submitted online application for SOWP from outside Canada (I already arrived to Canada two years ago), for spouse from UK. At the time of application the estimated waiting time was 3 weeks.
(No medical required)
End of week 3: wait time went up to 4 weeks.
End of week 4: wait time went up to 5 weeks.
Feb 15th: status update to reviewing eligibility.
Feb 20th: approved (today)
I know this isn't a lot of information but I was combing forums to see what the relative times/status updates looked like so maybe this will help someone (and the wait time kept changing! Ugh! Be patient)
Spouse Open Work permit

How do you know this??Application processing time is increased to 12 weeks

Hi, Congratulations.

This time did you use any lawyer, agent or applied by yourself?
Also How much fund you and your spouse showed in your bank account?

Waiting for your kind reply.
