I missed this earlier. The port was sent on Friday, 19th Apr from PH. We received it today with the counterfoil.

abbey1986:




Congratulations brother…have you dropped your port ? And please do anyone know how long before they update the visa details on the tracker.. submitted last Tuesday 17th and only son visit visa have been approved. Sowp and don study permit still pending

Bobomaigida:


They will definitely conclude on the application, you can give like a week break. Eligibility checks would have been done in the background so final decision will drop without the status of eligibility changing.

Just hope for the best. I know the wait can be full of anxiety. Just hang in there.

Thanks a lot Bobomaigida. PPR just dropped.

Hello Everyone,

My wife applied for SOWP (spouse of a Masters student) on Jan 23rd with biometrics completed Feb 5. She reached out to IRCC (via email with the s provided on this thread) on Apr 6 and got a response from Nairobi, saying the application is still within the processing time (over 10 weeks after submission). The medical was updated on the same day.

Its 12 weeks already and the page is stuck on "application is in progress". Eligibility has not started. A webform was sent on Apr 11 but no response or till date. Is it okay to keep sending webforms and emails to IRCC or we just wait?

JapaPrince:


I will not argue with your point rather I’ll give you some food for thoughts, I am not far from you in my expenses because I am in a self sponsored Master’s program.
But I will never allow negativity win, when I got here reality hit me so hard, because I was doing well in Nigerian standards but I had to adjust, all the years I spent in Abuja flexing I couldn’t meet a decent lady that I can settle down with but just 6 months in Canada I met a beautiful, humble, intelligent, hard working Nigerian girl. What are the odds if I didn’t move I’ll probably be married to one slay queen.
I’m not yet PR but bro I am forever positive, I know why I left, and I wasn’t expecting to become a millionaire overnight.
Do not generalize, you are disappointed in your journey not everyone is, I pray you find reasons to be thankful and the money you spent with time you’d get it back. Finally you can still head back home, your happiness is important.

Your response is spot on.
We all have different aspirations. Imagine feeling safer walking down the street in a foreign land at midnight but as a Port Harcourt "big-boy", I am on high alert in broad daylight. I knew I wont come here to pluck money from trees but I still cant compare it to life in Cityboy country.

Please is anybody having issues receiving biometrics letter quickly Of recent
I applied on 20/01/24 for sowp and SP and VV for my two kids
And despite paying for everything and them confirming submission
My biometrics letter has not dropped since then
Any one having this problem ?

Any response now? Submitted the application on January 23, still no biometrics letter till now.

Rasakiopoewa:
[Some people had same issue in the past, but cannot how it was solved. Wth IRCC, you just keep your fingers cross while I will advice you send them a lthem a mail. They will suely respond and send in your biometric information details. The attestation letter only applies from jan 22nd and you applied jan 20th, u cross that hurdle. They will get back to you.Best wishes

I am in a similar situation. Applied for SOWP on January 23rd and I received a ghost update after 24 hours stating there was an update to the application. Checked the portal but there was no update till now.

With regards to crossing the hurdle, its a SOWP for Masters student so I don't believe it applies to me. Do you recommend sending a webform as well?
