    Unless they check the account themselves, however based on what I see with many lawyers, they won't say anything until they have received official correspondence from CIC. And I was thinking of doing that! But I'm afraid the lawyer might find out and think we are overstepping or something...

    2018 Spousal Sponsorship in-land Applications: timeline and updates

    Hi Japonesa! It usually takes 4-6 weeks for AOR (so you should be receiving yours by the end of the month) and 3-4 months for the OWP. It's very rare (although not impossible) for people to get their OWP in 6-8 weeks unfortunately.

    OWP usually only gets rejected if the payment is wrong or they missed a signature/application form. Which is why I asked if they have received AOR.

    If you have already submitted your application for OWP along with PR, and have not had it returned (in other words, have received AOR) then you are on implied status and will be fine until you get your work permit. No need to extend.

    I know, you're right it is case by case, but most people in our Whatsapp group within the first weeks of Feb have not received it. I'm not just talking about my own individual case, but of many others as well.
