Yes, every timeline is different.Is it normal to receive the Biometrics request and don’t receive request for medical after 2.5 weeks? I read some posts and its usually within timeframe of week or so.

Based upon the QA asked on IRCC website, its is showing me to fill out form 5710 which is for extension or change in conditions. As I already have a work permit, and under form 5333 it mentions that 5710 is applicable for those who are already in Canada and want to extend their stay as a worker. Please advise if I am getting wrong documents/checklist.1. You should apply for SOPW and it’s not an extension of your current WP
2. No, new rule only applies to PGWP
3. Usually SOPW will be valid for 2 years
What is your current work permit by the way? CWP? PGWP? OWP?
If I were you I will apply for SOPW right away.
even you are having a work permit, if you want to apply for SOWP it will be a totally new one, 5710 is correct form in both case (extension or getting new one)Based upon the QA asked on IRCC website, its is showing me to fill out form 5710 which is for extension or change in conditions.

You should not do the upfront medical. You can apply the SWOP now without the medical. As part of your PR, they will ask you for one soon. And the current processing time for work permits are 145 days. So this whole thing is a long process, you will be waiting a long time anyway.Dear Team,
I have a matter that I would appreciate your advice on.
I have submitted a spousal sponsorship application for Canada with the following details:
I received the AOR on October 27, 2024, and I am now planning to apply for a Spousal Open Work Permit (SOWP). Once I log in to or create my IRCC secure account, I will need to answer a few questions to obtain a personalized document checklist. One of the questions is whether I have completed a medical examination. They have also provided a list of designated physicians for this purpose (https://secure.cic.gc.ca/PanelPhysicianMedecinDesigne/en/Home).
- Application Submitted: September 11, 2024
- Principal Applicant Status: Visitor Visa
- Sponsor: Canadian Citizen
- Acknowledgment of Receipt (AOR): October 27, 2024
My question is: should I complete the medical exam and submit the results with my SOWP application, or is it advisable to submit the SOWP application first and wait for IRCC to request the medical exam? Would waiting for the request potentially delay the processing of my SOWP application?
Any advice or guidance you could provide would be greatly appreciated as I move forward with my application.
Best regards.
Just wait for them to request for itDear Team,
