Hi Everyone

I have just joined this form but always read the queries posted by members and the replies they r getting.
I am a full time student at Humber College, Canada. I am here since sep 2012. My husband applied for spousal open work permit in the month of October.
The file has been received by Canadian consulate on Oct 29 2012, and till date it says is in processing.
We haven't get any reply since then..........It has been told by VFS (New Delhi) to my husband that its gonna take 20 working days.
Please anyone can suggest me what is the actual processing time for spousal OWP and what is the reason for the delay?

Many Thanks
Jassi

I am getting hyper. My wife is awaiting her passport now after being rejected once. This time we have a letter supporting her work permit from my Provincial nominee officer. Hope this time her file will be accepted. We applied in On Feb 22nd and her passport is coming now. Hope they just stamp the visa and don't tell her to go for medical examination. Lol

 

[nefiriouse]

It's surprising that my wife has been refused again. This time she even had a letter to support from my Provincial nominee officer. Any suggestions. Please help.

Sorry to hear about this refusal, You may get your CAIPS/GCMS notes from CIC . These notes will help you in understanding what went wrong with your wife's application.

Here is the link regarding CAIPS / GCMS notes:

You may search this forum if u need more info regarding CAIPS/GCMS notes and what people do when their visa applications are refused.
Good Luck.

My husband is working in Canada on a 3 year Post Graduate Work permit.
I wanted to join him there and work there as well, so have the following question:-

Can I apply for an open work permit online through the CIC website? I filled the questionnaire online and it confirmed that I am eligible to apply, however I am unsure about how I will apply for a visa once I get the work permit?

Hello,

I`m Pallavi from India. Our nationality is Indian. My husband is working in Canada as NOC C. He will be applying soon for his wok permit for NOC B level job, bcoz an LMO for this job has been approved. I have applied temporary visitors visa in India and it has got rejected. Hence I need some information regarding my open work permit. My husband will be applying online for both work permits (his work permit and mine open work permit) from Canada only. I will be submitting "Use of family member representative" i.e IMM5713. We need to upload the documents mentioned below.

The document checklist for my husband is :
Application to Change Conditions, Extend my Stay or Remain in Canada as a Worker (IMM5710)
Marriage License/Certificate
Offer of employment
Labour Market Opinion (LMO) from HRSDC or proof of submission
Passport or travel document
Digital Photo
Proof that you meet the requirements of the job being offered
Employer Questionnaire and Declaration
Use of a Family Member Representative for Online Applications (IMM5713)

the document checklist for me is as follows:
Application for Work Permit Made Outside of Canada (IMM1295)
Family Information (IMM5645)
Passport or travel document
Digital Photo
Family Information Form (IMM5707)

M having some doubts while filing IMM1295- Application of work permit from outside Canada

1. As my husband wil be the representative, what should I write in Current Mailing address and residential mailing address. Should I give My husbands address as current mailing address. and residential as mine in India?

2. Details of prospective employer
a. Name of Employer
b. Complete Address of Employer
3. Intended location of employment in Canada
4. Job title and description of duties


Please tell me how to apply for visa once I get open work permit.


Please guide me in this regard.

Thank You.
