Can anybody share how they were able to link OWP application on GCKey?
TO LINK OPEN WORK PERMIT (This is what other applicant did, hope this works for you too)

Enter Passport Information:

↳ Passport Number

↳ Country of Issue

↳ Issue Date and Expiry Date

Details of intended work in Canada

Type of Work Permit: Open (Initial Application or Extension)

Hope this helps.

My app was delivered on May 18th and I haven't heard yet... Hopefully I will soon. I sent it in early march and received it back in late April, I really hope it isn't coming back again. Anyone in this frame that could put my mind at ease?
Application is Inland btw, with Schedule A, background check with it and no owp.

Some missing info for family members on the 5406 I believe. I don't have addresses + emails for all of it and I left it with an N/A in some boxes, when I got it back I called in and asked and they said to provide a letter of explanation if I couldn't give that info. Sadly ended up taking a while to get back out because I had originally sent my app when I was in Canada for less than six months, I had to wait to receive a Canada background check before remailing which also meant we were really close to the three month mark of when our papers where signed meaning I had to reprint our whole application... It was fun.

Sheesh. They could have asked first before returning it... I hope your application gets processed soon !

I really wish they would have. It's simply because Im not in contact with some members of my family and haven't been for a long time. Would've saved a lot of hassle and I really had no idea I should've specified why because everything I've read says if you don't have an answer for a section to just put N/A. Thank you though! I hope so too. Fingers crossed!

Question - if I redo only some of the application forms for spousal sponsorship and others remain the same - meaning if there are different dates at the end where you sign - would this be an issue or should I redo all of them to have the same dates.
Plus we left the country during the time our application was sent and then returned due to missing docs and therefore the question “when was your most recent entry to Canada” would have changed .
Would you update those docs as well or just send it the requested doc??
Help!

My application was delivered in the same day as yours. So that’s mean mine will be returned? :(

I don't think so! Your application might be handled by different officer and also depend on the work load of each officer. usually it takes 4-8 weeks to receive AOR. Don't worry, you still have 2 weeks time to be worry.
