Hi,
This is very very usual.
The update e-mail that you got is for confirming transfer of your file to the visa office.
It happened to me also.

Hi folks,

I got some questions about OWP application process.

My wife is a student, so I can obtain OWP as a spouse. I am now in Canada with my wife, my status is "visitor" and I want to get an OWP now.

I went through an "am I eligible" survey on CIC and got my checklist with applications in it. Now I have questions how to fill some of the fields in it.

1. For example, there's an article 7 with a question of my current country of residence. According to the information I need to write CANADA as I am in Canada now. SO they ask start and end date of my status (as a visitor) - should I put there start and expiration date of my VISA (even if I came to Canada a week ago)?

2. An article "DETAILS OF INTENDED WORK IN CANADA". I have NO job offer so what should I write there? Probably leave it blank - correct?

3. According to the check list the only document I should add is my marriage certificate. Do you recommend to add something else?

4. Should I write an explanation letter why I am here in Canada as a visitor and apply for an OWP?

thanks in advance.....
