It's so nice to have that spousal work permit program. How to apply and what are the requirements? I should have done the same thing than coming here as a caregiver 3 years ago... It is taking us 32 mos to get our family. If I haven't wasted more than year now waiting for the PR I might probably drop my application and go to Alberta and find a job there to make me eligible in applying spousal work permit for my husband in PHilippines... I have been here in Canada for more than 3 years now and still waiting for me and family's approval for PR so we can be reunited... Waiting too long is such a pain... but too late to give up! If they will give us that kind of program while waiting for PR that would be great and I wouldn't mind waiting for another 32 mos or even if it take us 5 years more to get a PR as long as we are happy together!!!
