Hello
I am hoping someone can help me with this and provide some information.

So my wife is an international student in Canada and I have just been approved a TRV to go visit her with my daughter, I land in Canada next week and want to apply for the SOWP (Spouse open work permit) when I land since I am eligible to apply. My question is

1. How long should I wait to send in my application?

2. Can anyone provide me with documents I would need to submit to ensure my application is approved?

Also regarding my daughter who is 20 months old... can i apply for a visitor record when I land or how long should I wait?

Thanks

Congratulations
So how much time did your inland SOWP take to process? Was it new or extension?

For me it was my WP not my spouse's WP. It took around 4 months I believe. Applied in around mid December.
