Some help please!
I am currently accepted to do a 2 year masters in Toronto and would like to bring my common law spouse along. I heard open work permit could be applied for my spouse but I am not sure about the procedures on how to do so. Can someone shed some light on this?

Thanks!!

Thanks Ashok.

To clarify on that, I should be applying for my own study permit while my spouse applies for a TRV and when we land in Canada I should apply the open work permit for my spouse?

Hello Shine,
I have been accepted for PhD Program and planning to apply for my study permit and TRV for wife and 11 months old child next week.
Looking forward to interact with you.

Thanks
