My partner and I are both British citizens. One of Canada's largest engineering firms has just offered him a position. He'll get a visa without any difficulty, however, as a Personal Assistant, what options are open to me? I've discovered you can only contact the Canadian Embassy in London by post or email. Whilst waiting for an answer, it appears I can enter Canada without difficulty getting a 6 month's visitors visa on entry, renewable up to 30 days before expiration. However, his job offer is permanent and I would want to work and / or study there. Can I use his position as leverage somehow and get an Open Work Permit either from here or from within Canada, because of the skilled work he does? Thanks. S
