I am also in same situation, but i have a doubt. I need to apply for Spouse open work permit. My wife is not working for the last 5 years (She used to work before that). Does it mean that her application has chance of rejection?
As long as you have a job in NOC 0, A or B that is what counts. When does your WP expire?
I am sorry i should have been little more clear. I am going to apply for work permit and was hoping to apply for family too so that i can take them along with me. But i heard from one of my friend that if i apply for my spouse since she is not currently working, there may be chances of rejection. My NOC skill code is A.
No chance at rejection because she isn’t working. OWP is the correct permit even if she has no intention of working.
Hello! To apply for Spousal OWP, why is it required to "show ties to home country"? Also, what constitutes as ties, what kind of documents would they want to see?
Another question is, he hasn't lived in his home country for over a decade and have lived across multiple countries and is currently on a Dependent Visa (outside of Canada).
Your responses are much appreciated!

Google for check processing times and find out. Inside canada should be around 2-3 months while from outside depends which country you apply from.
Hi
I got the open work permit as my spouse received closed work permit. Can I enter Canada with valid Canadian company's offer letter and start working without my spouse as her company is still not ready to send her? Her company is ready to send her in 2 months after arranging Finance for her, from client.

You should enter at the same time as your spouse since your work permit is dependent on hers. Risky for you to go earlier and alone.
