YesHi everybody,
My OWP arrived in the mail today but says not valid for re-entry at the bottom. Does that mean I cannot leave Canada at all until my PR application is completed?
Please help!

This is correct, the "not valid for reentry" just tells you that the Work Permit alone is not enough, not that if you leave Canada you lose the WP or anything.hi there
my understanding is that its just a document stating your status in canada and authorization to work here but in order to travel leave country and come back you have to apply get visa paper pasted on your passport which will be valid fro travel. i am assuming you are out of status and it says on the most of the immigration documents that not valid for travel. but now you have gained your status you can apply for travel visa. i hope this helps.
Hi there when did CIC receive your application?Hi everybody,

So would a visitors visa suffice, or would I need to get the work visa stamped if I plan to leave the country for a 2 week trip?This is correct, the "not valid for reentry" just tells you that the Work Permit alone is not enough, not that if you leave Canada you lose the WP or anything.
You need your Passport, Work Permit and a Visa or eTA to re-enter.
For example I am from an eTA country (UK) and I got my OWP and eTA as part of the same app.
Unfortunately I do not know the answer to that question as I am eligible for eTA.So would a visitors visa suffice, or would I need to get the work visa stamped if I plan to leave the country for a 2 week trip?
Hi there, firstly yes I believe there is an august 2018 forum. Secondly from what I understand, its asking when YOU(SPONSOR) applied for PR was the applicant also noted in your application. The last part "(Note: If you have never applied for a permanent resident visa No)" probably refers to those born here or something. Again, this is my understanding of the statement/question.Hi there,
I am a newbie here. I will be applying in August 2018. Is this the relevant group for discussion or is there a separate group for August 2018 applications.
If anyone can help me with this question -
The latest Document checklist (updated as of June 2018) asks a new question to the 'sponsor' at the beginning of the checklist -
"The person Iam sponsoring was declared as my spouse or partner and was already examined as a non-accompanying dependent when I applied for a permanent resident visa and did not receive an immigrant visa.(Note: If you have never applied for a permanent resident visa No)
Now, my understanding is it is asking if you were married before you applied for your own PR and your wife was declared as a non-accompanying dependent in your (meaning Husband's) PR application. But what if I was single at the time I received my PR and got married later? Obviously she wasn't part of my PR application. referring to words in the bracket, it says tick NO if you have never applied for a permanent resident visa. what does this mean by IF YOU HAVE NEVER APPLIED FOR A PERMANENT RESIDENT VISA? - Does it ask if I (the sponsor has never applied for a permanent visa) or if I have ever sponsored anyone for a PR visa?
I am confused if I should tick Yes or No.
Thanks!
@canuck_in_uk If you can help as well. Thanks
OK thank YouUnfortunately I do not know the answer to that question as I am eligible for eTA.
I assume when you get a work permit you get some kind of temporary status as well (TRV/TRP?), perhaps someone else can confirm?
Thanks for the advice. I entered Canada on a visitors visa in my passport which is valid for seven years and multiple entries ( and did my spousal application since then from inside Canada). Would I be able to re-enter with that?hi there

my understanding is you dont need any further visa to re-enter canada since you already have a valid visitor visa.Thanks for the advice.

Would I be able to re-enter with that?
