Hi,
I have my Ontario PNP issued and my Federal part of PR application is in process. It is under the regular process and not under express entry system. My current status in Canada is open work permit. I plan to get married to my girlfriend in India in January 2016, and plan to add my spouse to my pending PR application soon after I come back to Canada after my wedding.. While I am in India, after my wedding, I plan to apply for her open work permit under the spouse open work permit category.
How does it work? Can one apply for spouse open work permit while that spouse's name is already added on the primary person's PR application? Also, do you think if it is wise to apply for her work permit before I add her name on my PR application? or apply after the name is added? During her work permit application time, do I need to inform CIC that my PR application is under process?
