    Please Help... thank you so much!

    I also included the $85 biometric fee just to be safe even if my partner is in Canada so the total would be $1380. I believe you are missing the work permit holder fee of $100. If you search for the work permit application by itself, it will show you the price. hope that helps.

Can I bridge the OWP with his expired one since it won't be past 90days when we file for his sponsorship? Will this give him implied status and allow him to work...
