Hey All! Does anyone know if I am eligible to apply for an open work permit for my spouse who’s in another country and listed as a non-accompanying member on my application? I currently have a closed work permit which expires in 22 months.

Yes, you're qualified to apply for sure but you must have an noc b,a or 0 designation

for sending Passports to VFS office in Delhi. My parents have old & new passports, do i need to send expired and new passport both? Also why is VFS asking for two separate packages when both my parent are under one application and to be collected from same home? are they trying to squeeze more money out of us by asking two separate couriers for Applicant & Dependant.

I applied on 12 October for SOWP.
My upfront medicals passed on 1st November. And my review of Eligibility was we are reviewing whether you meet eligibility.
Now my medical is showing:
You do not need medical exam. (most probably coz they are expired now). I do not need them anymore I think as my wife's study permit will expire end of march.
And review of eligibility has gone one step back to
Your application is in progress.
Any update?

Hello friends,
I applied for my wife’s dependent work permit on 19th September 2020. But no updates yet. Her medical was also expired last month on 15 th November 2020.
When she applied for her sowp at that time i have a open work permit now i got my permanent residentship last month.
So any idea about what will happen to her application?
Thanks
Any update?

My spouse applied for Sowp and when she did log in yesterday at that time her ircc profile was updated/ submitted. But everything on her IRCC account was same as earlier. So Does it mean good sign for approval?
She applied for SOWP on 19 th Sep 2020 and after that not a singal update on her file.
Any update?

Hi guys
if a person is granted a Spousal open work permit , can he travel without a written authorization letter from IRCC or he still needs it?
