    SOWP 2020

    Unless one is an essential worker. BTW, getting permit at port of entry is NOT always "Flagpoling". It is a very genuine way to get your initial work permit.

    Rare situation

    Then .... most likely this is the case. BUT! Please do not take it lightly as well. Unless cleared from doctor, better get it investigated. IBD is not the worst diagnosis in the world, it can be anything. So please, don't panic but don't take health lightly too. Just meet your GP or doctor.

    Rare situation

    Please don't self diagnose. IBS often shows similar symptoms too. IBD can be ruled out sometimes with a very inexpensive blood test (ask you doctor, I can not give medical advice over internet). IBS is very common and NOT as troublesome as IBD. There are a host of problems that can cause...

    (Super Delay) Work Permit Extension (inland) Timelines Here...

    True. But then no one knew the kind of shit storm Covid will become back in march. IRCC is fixing the plane as we are flying it.

    Rare situation

    Health is more important than Canada. Please get him checked by the doctor. Possibly, he may not have IBD.

    (Super Delay) Work Permit Extension (inland) Timelines Here...

    If your application is in flight, it will get the exemption, AFAIK. If you have already given biometrics... well then you have already given them. This exemption is a reaction to the application piling up.

    Restoration of status

    Hi, I am sorry to sound like a broken record. But I think you might be wrong. IMHO, the person can only restore their status as a worker. Here is why I think this is the case : 1. Please consider the updated policy, procedure and guidance from IRCC regarding restoration of status : It clearly...

    Does your family member want to restore their status in Canada?

    I think if she is on implied status, then this answer is "NO". Because she has a status in Canada, an implied one. Now only trouble is, if her application is "Rejected Incomplete", then she will no longer have status retroactively. It will be treated as if she lost her status on the day her...

    SOWP extension in process and spouse loses job

    Trouble is, I have searched the entire web high and low, left and right and I can't find one single person who informed about the loss of their job to IRCC and posted what happened afterward. I guess I will talk to a Lawyer and seek their opinion on this. This is still more of an exercise in...

    SOWP, ask me anything.

    No, your status expires on the date when it says it does on your permit. If you don't apply for extension then you will be out of status on the date it says on the permit. It has little to do with loss of job. Loss of job does not lead to loss of status. If you have closed permit like me, it...

    Sowp Restoration or Visitor visa to owp conversion

    A liitle bit more of context will help to understand this situation. But lemme be clear, I am asking more context because of my own selfish reason (read my other posts to understand it). Never-the-less, here is what I know and I am not an expert or a lawyer. Firstly, who is on SOWP, you or your...

    SOWP extension in process and spouse loses job

    Interesting, have you seen threads where someone actually informed IRCC that they lost the job using change of condition process and what happened next? I guess if I lose my job then I will have to go for restoration of status. That is also somewhat restricted, you can apply to restore only in...

    India PCC from Toronto

    Did anyone tried raising this issue with Govt of India/MEA? Whats behind this utter madness?

    SOWP, ask me anything.

    1. Losing job is not same as losing status. 2. Spouses can (like in my case) have work permits with different expiry dates. I had to change my location of work and that caused my work permit to be changed. This way, I have a work permit with expiry date later than SWOP of my spouse.

    SOWP, ask me anything.

    Hi folks, Due to pandemic, we have this situation : SOWP-extension application is taking too long. May be 6 months or so. I have a closed work permit extended with validity till Dec 22. My spouse SOWP-extension is in process. What will happen in these six months if I lose my job? Will my...

    SOWP extension in process and spouse loses job

    Hi, I hold a closed work permit and my spouse an open work permit. My spouse's work permit expires in October 2020. We are applying for their extension of SOWP. I have three stubs, contract etc. Since these days there is a massive delay in processing SOWP extension, what will happen if I lose...

    WES rejected my ECA and IQAS approved it. My documents submitted after against ITA got rejected

    Let me be blunt. IRCC and WES and IQAS are not exactly faultless. There are quite a few instance (this one included) where they make really weird and really contradictory decisions. What I find even more amusing is that WES and IQAS do not agree when presented with SAME FACTS! These evaluations...

    WES ECA validity and renewal

    Alright! Time for me to chime in as well I requested a duplicate (original done in dec 2014) yesterday night and today I got my PDF. Also I had requested both "Send ECA to me" and "eDelivery to IRCC" as seen in my account details: Here is my WES account screen cap: @guydecent Did you also...
