getting a work permit for my common-law partner based on my working holiday visa

[dix89]

Hello, I have a question about getting a work permit for my common-law partner based on my work permit. So, I activated my Working Holiday visa in June 2016. I was wondering what do I need so he can get it? Is it true that I need to get employed like:

0631

assistant bar manager
assistant manager – bar
assistant manager, restaurant
banquet manager
bar manager
beverage service manager
café manager
cafeteria manager
canteen manager
canteen service district manager
canteen services manager
catering service manager
cybercafé manager
dining establishment managing supervisor
dining room manager
district manager, canteen service
fast food restaurant manager
food and beverage service manager
food services manager
hotel food and beverage service manager
Internet café manager
manager trainee, restaurant
manager, café
manager, catering service
manager, cybercafé
manager, food and beverage service
manager, food services
manager, hotel food and beverage service
manager, Internet café
manager, restaurant
managing supervisor, dining establishment
restaurant assistant manager
restaurant manager
restaurateur – food services
tea room manager

(for restaurants)?

I need 2 cheques and prove our common-law relationship by having a joint account in the bank and we also have the same address on passports and ID's for a few years now. My question is, is that enough, so he can get work permit as long as mine is valid? And is there a specific hourly income required, or the job title is enough? His visitor visa is expiring in a month. We are both from Croatia. Thank you very much in advance!

Your common law spouse cannot get a permit based on a working holiday visa permit you hold.

not 100 percent true as a common law partner can apply for a permit separately providing the IEC holder has a job in 0 a or b and a contract for 6 months or longer. NOC 0631 is cat 0 but of course actually getting a firm contract or proving a 6 month or more contract in hospitality on an IEC might be challenging.

They still need to prove common law of course like 12 months min cohabiting see here under non accompanying dependants http://www.ci.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/temp/work/opinion/experience/index.asp

No idea what the processing time likely to be but if the OP only arrive June then showing 6 month min contract first challenge so getting anything within a month not sure. There are other posts somewhere about spouses/common laws whilst not actually accompanying in IEC they get an extended visitor visa but in case time now given imminent expiry to fill out the extend stay as visitor documentation.
