I did, but we married only this April, good that they didn't reject straight away but asked for an additional proof

you can attach marriage photographs, traveling history if you guys traveled after marriage.

i have applied SP + 2 kids SP ( 6 and 2 years) and SOWP. medical passed. biometrics done. me , kids SP all got AIP. additional doc request for SOWP . after that no status

that’s good sign, actually they usually request passport after medical and biometric but because of covid and travel restrictions they might be holding last step for now

can you guys include what embassy/country granted you AIP or approval?
so we have idea which of these embassies are actively granting these AIPs and approvals for families.

Please share GCMS notes when you get it. Are you starting online classes or deferring to Winter Intake?

I applied for SP with SOWP for my husband. I am a transfer student from US college and will finish my Bachelors in Canada. I received SP approval on August 28th in Information letter. However, my passport was not requested because of travel restrictions. My husband has to do a follow up screening on September 12th (medical exam). I applied for both of us on August 8th from Ukraine

Hello, am glad to hear that you are having some positive outcome regarding your SP application and sure you will get the same for your husband.

I am Eritrean living in Italy with my wife. I have been accepted for PhD with the full fund in Canada. I am on my way to apply for SP for me and SOWP for my wife together. Could you please let me know the criteria to apply for SOWP? Like the number of funds required? Please share your overall advice with me.

Thanks in advance!

you as the main applicant will be the basis for both of your application approval or refusal if you apply at the same time.
IRCC only required minimum 4K CAD for your spouse and of course plus plane tickets.

Hey, thanks so much for your reply? Does it mean they will approve my wife's SOWP application if they approve my SP? And how is the processing time?

thanks again.

thanks again.

Yes, you have good chances.

Processing time is high these days as IRCC already dealing with the backlog. Hope processing time will get better after the fall intake deadline.

Italy current processing time: 4 weeks

Thanks so much!

My Ph.D. will be fully funded and I am thinking to show around 20K CAD. Do you think this should be enough to apply SOWP for my wife?

Do you think family ties are really important for IRCC?

Thanks so much!

Yes, that will be good enough to show between 20-30k. Also show spouse profile strength in client information i.e. her education, background, current job, and apply for SOWP.

Although this is not mandatory to show I feel it make the case strong that SOWP will adjust easily as a Ph.D is a long journey.

Thanks, one last question, please. Do you think family ties in Canada are really important for IRCC?
