this is my case: I am Brazilian and currently living as tourist visa with my common law partner in Canada. He is here with a IEC - Work holiday visa, but he works as a skilled B level. Second my research, I do could apply for an open work permit. My question is how? Once I am inside Canada, but I am not a temporary Residence, I cannot apply online within Canada. Can I apply online for outside Canada? And then what? Does anyone know how is the process from that? Do I have to go to Brazil to do a interview or send paper? How I receive my OWP, once the QC border just do flagpole for renewal of visas.

The website is clear to say that I need to be a Temporary Residence to make it within Canada, and I am here as a tourist. My legal residence is actually Brazil.
Hi,
/ I am new on this Forums, so I am sorry if I should use a new topic instead of writing here /
I have a similar situation with my husband. He applied for Working Visa from inside of Canada since he is a tourist now in Canada.
After 2,5 months starting from application date, he got a reply as below:
"(...)You have not provided sufficient evidence to prove that your spouse is employed in an occupation that falls within the National Occupation Classification Skill level of 0, A or B. You may be eligible to re-apply for a work permit if you are able to provide proof that your spouse is a skilled worker in Canada, which may include a letter from your spouse’s employer, stating his/her job title, duties, and salary.(...)".
Yes, we forgot to attach documents from my work, that is why I am not sure what to do now.
I collected all necessary documents from my work, but the questions are:
1) Should we re-apply by starting the same process all over again and by paying the same fee as around 250 CAD?
2) Do we have to wait another 2-3 months for a reply?
Please help.
Thank you!

Did you get a refusal or are they requesting more info? You may get lucky and be able to just upload the information you forgot.
Unfortunately I just got a refusal, with no contact info to anybody (no phone no, no e-mail).
