Hi,
I am in Canada on Work Permit under NOC 2171 and have got the visitor visa for my husband too. Now we need to apply SOWP for him online under same category outside canada, before he travels to Canada. I have a few doubts regarding his OWP application outside of Canada.
- Do i need to submit a resume/supporting letter listing his technical skills and job responsibilities in previous employment?
- Is it beneficial to get an upfront medical exam done filing the application or medical is not required.
- Is it required to submit any proof stating that he is eligible for the job. If yes, what will be the proof.

Why don't you apply for Inland sowp .Let him come in as visitor visa and than apply for her change of status form 5710e.It has faster processing times

Good day,

My application was submitted online from within Canada (for a Spousal Open Work Permit) on January 29. Still no response. How soon can I expect a response? Also, where would I go to check processing time?

Your Spouse is here in Canada or in India .Fill up a webform and ask CIC regarding your case .Since maximum processing time is 84 days .
