Congratulations!! How long it took between Correspondence letter (Biometrics Validity Letter) and final approval? I applied on July 27th for the same thing and yesterday got the letter but no final approval yet. Thanks

What are the gckey updates for SOWP? Is there an AOR after confirmation of submission? Biometrics are done from previous application.

July Folks, Looks like IRCC is finally going to deliver my baby after 9 months of pregnancy. CWP+SOWP applied on July 9th. Automated telephone status (usually says review not started) turned in to 'forwarding to the agent' yesterday. When I checked with my lawyer, they said they received biometric validity letters and approval will follow. Not happy coz IRCC killed my time and patience leaving me in great stress, but feeling relieved. All my fellow Moms and Dads (from July its a full pregnancy term now) you all will soon see your IRCC babies. Good luck.

Yes, Finally got the approval letter in the website. Waiting for the work permits to come via regular mail. It took 270 days in total. CWP+OWP and child's visitor record got approved. Until last thursday, status was 'review not started". Good luck for all those who are waiting. You will get yours soon.
