Hi, girls...
I am wondering can I apply for the 'spouse open work permit' for my husband after I get the OWP ?

I couldn't wait that long... even the 2nd stage takes 13 months.

Anyone know it, Thank you.

you can apply for your husband's open work permit when you get your OWP...

How? Even if your husband is not yet here in Canada?

I am think to apply for the visitor VISA for my husband after I get the OWP.
but i am not sure if we could apply for a spouse open work permit.
I found it from CIC website.

If your spouse or common-law partner wants to work while in Canada, they must apply for their own work permit. Normally, they must meet the same requirements that you do, including obtaining (if needed) a labour market opinion (LMO) from Human Resources and Skills Development Canada.

However, your spouse or common-law partner may be eligible to apply for an “open” work permit that will allow her or him to accept any job with any employer if:

A. You are authorized to work in Canada for six months or longer and the work you are doing while you live in Canada meets a minimum skill level (usually work that would require at least a college diploma). Specifically, your job must be listed in Skill Level 0, A or B in the National Occupational Classification;

Let's pray for some changes tomorrow! All of us! Nothing else can help...

 

[angellois]

I know that too. We can only apply for their OWP if we are under the NOC A O B. Either you are a Doctor, Manager or a Supervisor..

With regards to visitor visa..it is also a 50/50 chances approval. I guess it all depends on the VO who will handle the application.

Another week another wish... Hope we'll have good news tomorrow. Good luck everyone.

(sigh) no changes for today i think..

Be patient they change it a bit later sometimes! If nothing, they will update the date anyway!

 

[AgiHun]

They updated. Still 14-15 months, but they are working on March 28th 2010!

Let her file and put the husband as non-accompanying...its possible.

 

[job_seeker]

Yes, non accompanying, but the husband and kid must be medically examined.
