My Husband is currently in Canada with a Worker Visa valid till August'2012.
As per the information from his company he have to extend his stay for another couple of years.
Company will take care of the Visa extension.Currently I am in india and is working.
He applied for a Dependent Visa with OWP for me.
His company had taken care of the processing but has handed me a VISITOR visa
till March'2012. :(
But I want to leave my job and join my husband after November this year.
Please let me know , how can I extend my stay in Canada with my Husband for next couple of years.
How long does that takes and what are the procedures for the same.
Also, i would be greatful ,if you could kindly let me know ,is there any chance for me to have a job in canada.
Looking for your valuable inputs on this.

OWP takes longer than a month check the processing times(for Vegreville, Alberta) on the CIC website. And you dont need police clearance and medical examination. The medical is only required if you will be working in certain fields for eg. primary or secondary school teacher.

Ask you husband to send you a copy of his current WP (hopefully it's skilled type of job). Present this together with your marriage certificate at POE and let the officer know you want to apply for an OWP.
