How to bring spouse of a student in Canada

[averma]

Hi,

I am planning to pursue a 2 year MBA from Canada in Fall next year. My question is that I would wish to take my wife along with me to Canada. To be specific, I wanted some clarity on below points.

1. Is there a VISA option which I can file for my wife which can allow her to work full time in Canada while I study. I mean can both the process happen in parallel i.e. I file for my student visa in India and subsequently my wife can file for any other visa which will allow her to work full time in Canada. If yes, then what would be that VISA?
2. If above is not possible, then once I reach Canada, is there any type of VISA which will allow my wife to come to Canada (post me reaching Canada on student visa) and have full time work permit on that VISA.

Please advice.

you can both apply at the same time in one file. as your spouse she can apply for an OPEN WORK PERMIT, that will enable her work full time in Canada.
