First of all, I want to thank you so much for the detailed video. It helps me a lot. I have a question at 10.37. I am on the applied status of PGWP, and I want to apply for my husband's SOWP extension. Then what document should I submit in that field, i.e., a family member's proof of status? at 12.45, As I am extending sowp, Why do we need to select apply for a WP with the same employer instead of restoring status as a worker? Because we are not applying for his current employer. I want an open work permit so that he can work anywhere in Canada.

Hi bro. Your video is little confusing for those you are applying for their Spouse OWP extension from their own GC key. Are you applying for your spouse OWP extension from your own GC key? If yes, Are you entering your spouse DOB and her visa expiration date in the initial questions?

GC key is only platform from where you apply , it doesnt matter you apply from your or your spouse & for those who are applying there details need to be mentioned while filling form.
