The situation

The applicant was from Nigeria and was sponsored by their Canadian spouse after the couple married in Canada. The couple needed both permanent residence processing and an in-Canada spousal open work permit so the applicant could work while the sponsorship was in process.

What we handled

Handled the matter from start to finish, including sponsorship strategy, eligibility review, application forms, relationship evidence, supporting documents, status documents, representative submissions, and the in-Canada spousal open work permit application.

Outcome
Spousal open work permit approved early in the process, allowing the applicant to work while the sponsorship was assessed. Permanent residence approved approximately 15 months after submission.

Outcomes shared with client consent and anonymized. Past results do not guarantee or predict the outcome of any future application. Every case is assessed by IRCC on its own facts.
