hi stone. I am holding an open work permit. our pr application in on process under the live-in caregiver program. I am trying to see if I can be able to bring my husband under the spousal open work permit. am I eligible? thank you
 
With your situation, I think you should be working in high skilled job (i.e. NOC A,B or O).It's pretty easier for SOWP when you are a graduate student.

Hey Sunny

We applied for the SOWP on 26 March, to answer ur previous questions, yes, there have been 3-4 instances when a mail has been received that the application has been updated but turns out, there isnt any update. Also, ther processing times vary by the Visa offices handling the case. In our case, it is one of the Indian VOs. Considering there would be a great deal of rush with study permit apps and vacation season, expect some delays.

But my experience says, if it crosses 30 days and file is still in process, it should be positive. Fingers crossed.
