Hi All

I came to Canada in Dec 2011 and my husband's WP was valid till Dec 2012 so filed for an OWP. I got the OWP in Jan and joined an employer. My employer agreed to file for my WP and has obtained the positive A-LMO for me. While going through the questions for online filing I faced a couple of doubts on which I would like to get some advice:

1) Question: What is your current status in Canada?
Choices: Worker, visitor
Doubt: I came to Canada as a dependent of my husband because he was an intra-company transferee. What should I put as the answer to this question?

2) Why did you come to Canda?
Choices: To work, tourism, to visit family and friends, other.
I remember last time giving "other" as the answer and explaining the reason that I was a dependent of my husband because he was an intra-company transferee. I think it will be the right answer this time again, but just wanted to make sure.

Please guide me regarding question 1 above.

Thanks.

Sush.
