Your spouse will get an open work permit if a professional and has been working, otherwise the spouse will get a TRV. Your children who are not going to school will get TRV (temporary resident visa), and your children going to school will get a study permit.
Why is your family member visiting Canada?

You should apply for work permit then
I am sure you can also go for open work permit and mention that he/she has an joh offer should probably improve your chances for visa
I'm applying for a work permit with a 3-year LMIA from outside Canada. I want to apply for entry visa for my spouse and 2-year daughter to come co Canada with me. I applied through online portal which list the documents needed to be submitted.
all of my questions are belong to My spouse and daughter's forms.
1- I Have selected "Visit- All other type" in online questionnaire , about my spouse and daughter; "Why is your family member visiting Canada? ". is this a right selection for my spouse?
2- at the nest stages, it seems I have to submit form 5257E for both my spouse and daughter. completing the 5257E form for my spouse, section "details of your visit to Canada" , "purpose of my visit" I have selected "Other" commented with "Accompanying my husband who is applying for work permit". is this a right selection?
3- regarding the duration of stay for my spouse, should I use the dates from my own LMIA form?
4- what about the field "Fund available for my stay"?
5- what about the field "Name , Address and relationship of any person I will visit"

Assume you are an international student who has over 6 months left in the program but preferably 2 semesters or more. To get approved as a family member the student should have at least 6 months left of their program. Would add that visas and permits are not guaranteed for family members of international students. You will also need to show extra savings to show you can support your child because things like childcare is expensive.
Any child over 4 should apply for a study permit unless they are only coming to Canada temporarily for a visit. Although some documents still say only a TRV is needed many VOs are refusing the TRV applications and telling families to apply for study permits. You don’t need a letter of acceptance from a school. You can specify that your child will attend the local school.
Thank you for taking the time to answer. But I'm still confused about how to answer the question. I will be in Quebec for at least 1 year with a work permit. During this time my family (spouse and daughter) accompanied me here. For my spouse, I chose "Work With an Open Work permit" but I'm still struggling to know which I have to choose for my daughter. I'm sure she has to go to primary school during the time that I'm in Canada. I don't know which one is consistent with her : Visit or Visit-All other types or Study more than 6 months"
