Hello everyone,

I am applying for an Open Work Permit for my wife and a Study Permit for myself. I had upfront medical exams for my wife and me. I submitted our application on May 23rd, and we already provided our biometrics.

My question is the following: First, I observed that they divided our applications into two distinct submissions in the system. Does this mean that they will be processed separately? Since the processing time of my Study permit in my country (Mexico) is only 3 weeks while the Open Work Permit is up to 15 week, and I need to be in school by August 26th, this would a great help to get to my study permit on time (I need to have this approved before August 26th, the start date of my program).

My second question relates to the current status of our applications. While my Study Permit says that I have passed my medicals, the application of my wife is mute on this regard. It only states that she does not need a medical examination. Does this mean that there is any problem with her medical tests?

Thank you!
