I'm a bit confused with your situation. What country are you applying from?
I also am the main applicant and applied for my husband to get an open work permit along with me. We are still waiting for our medical request. How long did it take to receive your medical request?
When we talked to immigration lawyers in Canada, they told us our applications were processed together and either both would be approved or both would be rejected. I didn't think it was possible for one to be approved and one rejected. But I do hope you get good news. I have heard it is more difficult to get visas after you have family present in Canada, then it will show stronger ties to Canada than in your home country.
Hi, we are from El Salvador.
We started the application on May 17
Biometrics requested (for my husband and me) on May 23 and done on May 28
Medical exam requested (just for me) June 17, I will take it this friday ... I'm still in process.
Refusal letter (for my husband and my kids) on Jun 17
I knew the same thing as you, all would be approved or all would be rejected, no differents results in the same application. For that reason I think that my process is going to fail too, but I guess I have to try. I feel now that all that stuff of family reunification and they care of the family are Bull SH***t, I feel angry rigth now.
Maybe our failed was has asked for a TRV for my husband and not a OWP, maybe....
Hope you'll get the best results and success on your application
