Hello everyone,

Just have a question. Is is possible to have an express entry profile while a SOWP application is being processed? What if an ITA comes and the SOWP is in processing?

Hello Sir,

I'm a PhD degree holder. I have been offered a job in University Health Network, Toronto. I will be applying for work permit visa, along with my application may I also apply for my wife's Open Work permit visa ?

Submitting both applications (mine and my wife's) once at a time is good or I have to wait until I get work permit visa and then apply for my wife Open work permit visa. Kindly suggest.

Hello Everyone,

I have applied for my PGWP permit extension(i did not get 3 years because of my passport expiry) along with my wife's OWP on march 14, 2017.
I got update today that my work permit has been approved but no update yet for my wife's open work permit(without medical)
1. Anyone faced similar situation?
I am really having problem with long distance relationship so i am planning to left everything and go home :(
Canadian dream is really frustrating :(
Any suggestion would be appreciated.
(Background: we have paper based PR application in process. I submitted our pr application on 21 oct 2017. so it's been almost 7 months)

Thanks,

It is always a good idea to apply for your spouse's work permit along with yours.
