Just a curious question, when does your SOWP expire? TIA

Does your gc say ‘background check has started”. Mine didn’t even say I passed the eligibility although I have received the AIP.

I spoke to someone in the other forum. I'm on the same boat. No approval yet since I applied. Someone mentioned that I am ‘in maintained status’ until decision has been made. The consultant also said that there's no rhyme or rhythm to this, but there are cases in the previous cases that SOWP and...

Yep, all done. Biometric was done in Sept. and medical in June before we lodged the application for PR. Medical says passed in our PR application since Aug. 21.

How long is the background check for the SOWP? I applied in July and never heard from them. I just noticed the changes the other day. I have received and forwarded the AOR, SA, and AIP via web form at least a couple of times.

Proof of relationship and IMM 5406.

Processing takes 12 months according to the IRCC website. The fastest I’ve seen from another forum is around 4 months for an outland application.

I received a request letter (they're asking to resubmit a few documents) on my gckey. Tracker showed sponsor eligibility completed. Applied in July 7.

Hi Sam, is this for the sponsor? Does it mean the sponsor passed the eligibility check? Thanks.

No update yet. We have a similar timeline and applied on July 11th. I've just checked this morning and dumbfounded to see that it takes 166 days to get an initial work permit. That’s from 140 from a week or 2 ago. I feel defeated too.

When did you apply? Thanks

Yes, every timeline is different.

Just curious, is there any update in your gckey? I applied for OWP on July 11. I got the BIL for Inland Spousal Application in Sept 21 and my biometric details changed soon after I completed it, but there are no other updates since. My OWP is stuck in ‘application submitted’. Should I worry?

Hi Sam, i read in some forum that they were able to get a health card by using an AOR. I tried today. Well see how it goes.

I read from somewhere that biometric and medical for other applications (work, visitor) are different from PR application.

@sam001 Have you heard anything about your OWP application? I believe we applied at around the same time. Thanks
