[@Remykid]

Do you advise one should apply for Student Permit accompany by his spouse on SOWP ?

[@norashommy]

If you have all the requirement and enough hometie. Why not?

[@olaideekpe9621]

Good job,My regards to Nora and light.

[@unique.promise]

Thanks for the insightful video. Please is it okay for the spouse to create their cic account and apply from there instead of applying through the student’s cic account?

[@norashommy]

Thanks for the nice feedback.
Anyone of them is fine, but in our case, I (the student) used my account to apply for the rest of the family.
Best of luck!

[@chidinmaezike4343]

This was very useful.
Thanks for sharing

[@norashommy]

You are welcome.

[@Hopefulhope544]

Your video is so educating, am still in the process of gathering my documents to apply for study permit visa, my question is if my husband can apply with me at the same time

[@norashommy]

Thanks for the nice feedback.
Why not? If you guyz have all the requirement and enough hometie, you can both apply together.

[@Osas4Ray]

Hello. Pls I want to find out if the invitation letter from the spouse who is an international student should be notarized.

[@norashommy]

Hi,
No. It doesnt need to.

[@Osas4Ray]

@@norashommy Thanks for the information

[@abimbolaomiwale4818]

Good evening ,pls when my hubby is applying for SOWP for myself &VV for our kids,can i submit only my account statement that covers living & traveling expenses for myself and my kids or my hubby (principal applicant) must submit his bank statement too,he is still in Nigeria and we plan to travel together

[@abiodunojo970]

Please i have a question?
you pick no for the question, are you accompanying a family that has status in Canada or has recently been approved to come to Canada

[@norashommy]

Yea, because we didnt apply together.
That should be YES if both student and spouses are applying together for the first time.

[@abiodunojo970]

@@norashommy for the question ❓ there, if you click it, it says this means you will be staying with family who is already in Canada or has applied to come to Canada and as been accepted as visitor, worker or student.

[@abiodunojo970]

With the above meaning it should be yes

[@abiodunojo970]

Thank you Sir

[@abiodunojo970]

Please there is another question that says have you visited or lived in any one of the designed countries for 6 consecutive months. And Nigeria is yes.
What do I pick, yes or no

[@balkisuabdulwahab]

Thanks for the video sir, my question now Is please My husband will be sponsored by his aunt with all his living expenses and tuition and his daddy is gifting him huge amount to support.can he applied together with us his wife and kids,using his gift funds for our POF.with other supporting documents.

[@maximus02h5]

Thanks for your video. I’m a student and in Canada with my family. We applied for extension of our permits, and my kids were approved till Dec 2022. However mine is still pending. I want to apply for my kids extension, can I use my profile knowing fully well that my study permit has expired?

[@norashommy]

Hi, thanks for the nice feedback.
Yes, you can use your account to apply for the extension. IRCC has all your details and they'll surely know you have a pending application with them.
Best of luck and stay warm.

[@anyasiawele2406]

Thank you for simplifying this process for us, i just started the application for my spouse but the use of representative form is not showing on my portal and i dont know why. Do you by chance know why, PS i am still in nigeria so i chose that he is accompanying me

[@norashommy]

Thanks for the nice feedback.
Probably u need to fill the questionaire again, maybe there was a mistake while u are filling it.

[@olaideekpe9621]

Did you submit lease agreement for proof of residence.

[@norashommy]

Yes, I did. Watch Part 2. I listed all the documents I submitted.

[@TemmieSto]

Hi, thank you for the video
My question is Do you advice one should apply for a SOWP for spouse while I still in Nigeria. For example the wife already has her visa approval but hasn’t gotten the study permit and wants to file for SOWP for the husband while in Nigeria.
Does it work that way?

[@salamiyemisi5785]

Please is about my visa

[@favourujunwanwafor9909]

Please Shommy, help me with documents for children that is coming to study , because my children are of school age they can't come visitor Visa

[@norashommy]

Hello,
You don't need any serious documents, some do contact Board of Education and apply for the school for them while still in Nigeria, while some just apply for Visitor's Visa for them.
That would allow them to study aswell, besides the Immigration at the Point of Entry will issued them a study visa when you land in Canada.

[@ekiowafreelancingplatform8187]

Hello, Thank you for this eye-opening video. Please I am currently staying with my uncle. Can I show my uncle address as my address when applying for my wife SOWP. I intend to relocate to my apartment soon

[@uEsquire]

In your SOWP series Part 2 video where you talked about documents needed, you mentioned IMM5713e (Use of a Representative), but it's not showing in the documents checklist you generated after filing the questionnaire in this video. Is there a mistake here? Should you answer Yes to the question "Are you giving someone access to your application" since the husband who is already in Canada is using his own IRCC account to apply for the wife?

[@norashommy]

Yes. That is correct.
If you are using someone else account, you need to click YES during the questionnaire.

[@munachicynthia1665]

Please how long does this SOWP processing take?

[@norashommy]

Between 2months-1year.
