hello good people of this forum, I appreciate your effort n concerns . please when a sponsorship is approved for eligible family member under family class sponsorship, can such family member apply for open work permit as well, is it done?

Depends who sponsored that family member. And it depends if they were sponsored inland or outland.

If this is under the "other family member" sponsorship stream - then no, they don't qualify for an OWP.

Because only spouses and common law partners are eligible.
