Hello Everyone,
I had applied for Spouse Open Work Permit (SOWP) with the support of Spouse student visa and rejected my application with below mentioned reasons:

1) You have not satisfied me that you would leave Canada by the end of
the period authorized for your stay. In reaching this decision, I
considered several factors, including:
• length of proposed stay in Canada
• purpose of visit

2) You have not adequately demonstrated that you meet the requirements
of a work permit pursuant to section 205(c)(ii) of the Regulations.

Below mentioned documents, I had submitted along with the visa application

SELF Documents:
1. IMM Forms ( IMM1295 , IMM5257 , IMM5707 )
2. Upfront Medical receipt
3. Passport
4. Marriage Certificate
5. Letter of Explanation
6. Concordia University invitation letter
7. Bank Certificate ( 8,00,000 INR )
8. CA Certificate
9. Employment Details
10. IT Returns
11. IELTS Certificate
12. Education
13. Resume
14. Mutual Health Insurance Policy details
15. Mutual Travel History
16. Mutual Bank Transaction History
17. Air ticket to visit India during marriage and other occasions
18. Photo History
19. WhatsApp Chat History

SPOUSE documents:
1. Letter of invitation
2. Passport

6. Study Permit
7. SIN Number
8. Zero Payment Due at Concordia University
9. Bank Certificate ( 7,000 CAD )
10. Bank Statement
11. Proof of Tenancy

Now, I am not sure what extra documents I should submit in my new application to get the SOWP approved.

Any advice and suggestions will be greatly appreciated

Your funds are quite low to support another person. SOWP{ are not guaranteed for spouses of international students.

Study permit validity Jan 2017 - Dec 2019. Then she will apply for 3 years PGWP
If the study permit is valid for 10 more months and if we have applied for the sowp can that cause a problem for the approval of the owp?

Hi to all,
May I know how long does it take to get approved for spouse open work permit? We applied together for study permit + open work permit through Canadian lawyer. My spouse study permit has been Approved but open work permit is still in process. No update on open work permit since submission, not even medicals update ?

Any idea why does it process by them separately instead it should be together?

Spouses of international students are not guaranteed a visa/permit. It can take quite a few months to get response for SOWP.

Hello I just want to ask you one question. I read your CAIPS note. Your refusal main reason is Validity of study permit. your student course completion date :- December 2018 and student gets 3 more months as your study permit expiry was:March end 2019.

Question is then why you applied for SOWP in february 2019? Inspite of knowing that study permit will expire in less then 2 months end of march 2019. This is the main reason of your refusal.

You might have already applied for study permit extension but it was not approved that time when VO was checking your application eligiblity.
