Yes you can apply it with application of study permit for your wife
But you will only get OWP after your wife's study permit has been accepted
for timings,
it is nearly 9-10 weeks for OWP and 5-6 weeks for Study Permit now. But it is changig. U can chek the latest here.

Hello Neel,

I am in similar situation as outlined above. I have received offer letter for 2 years master's course with stipend. The amount is quite good I would say. Now I am planning to apply for study permit for me and work permit for my wife, both online. I went through online application of my account. I asks all detailed information about me including whether wife will accompany to Canada. But the application covers only for the study permit and it does not have no space for uploading passport and other details for my wife. How do I proceed for this? Am i missing things on the application? Do I create different account for my wife's work permit? Please help me in this.

Thank you.
