@dilute527 did you receive any update after BIL? Any update on SOWP?

Our PR application is in progress and we have also applied for SOWP. Do we still have to apply for visitor record to be on the safe side?

Did you apply for visitor record?

Hi,
What do you need to do when you are approaching the sixth month of living in Canada while waiting for your PR and SOWP applications?

Hi,
What do you need to do when you are approaching the sixth month of living in Canada while waiting for your PR and SOWP applications?

My understanding is if you already applied for SOWP and waiting for the result, you get maintained status https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/temporary-residents/visitors/implied-status-extending-stay.html

If you haven't applied yet, you need to do a visitor record https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/visit-canada/extend-stay.html

Thanks.
I applied for a visitor's record in October to get health insurance under my spouse and I'm currently waiting for the outcome of the SOWP.

Hi,

Iam currently open PGWP, expiring in April 2025. I applied for inland spousal PR and got AOR email. Now I am planing to apply for SOWP. So for the first question in the application form, I AM APPLYING FOR ONE OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWING.

1) Apply for work permit with the same employer
2) Apply for work permit for the first time or new employer
3) Get a new temporary resident permit
4) Restore my status us a worker

which one should I select as it not my first time applying for work permit and also Iam on open work permit at the time,so not sure whether to select apply for work permit with same employer.

anyone knows this or been through the same situation?

Hi everybody,
File applied = 5th September, 2024
AOR = 29th October, 2024

There is no update after AOR. Background is in process. Is it normal?
I am not even able to link my GCkey account to application. What to do?
Does anybody know how long this process gonna take on an average? .... Like 10 months or a year because somebody told me 24 months today. is this true?
