SOWP - PROCESSING TIME

[Imran6068]

I applied for SOWP for my spouse on Sep 27 2024: I didnt get any update until now.
Medical Up front done. Is there any still waiting for SOWP update from IRCC?

Maybe state country or if inland because processing times are different for each country. Also include your type of work permit, NOC etc because changes were announced to SOWPs and may now be implemented.

Processing is at least 5 months so nothing to do but wait.
