I keep on hearing that chances for spouses of people on Work Permit/PR/Citizen to get a TRV are slim.

My questions:
  1. Why is it so - does Canada not want the spouses of PR/Citizens to stay together or meet? - I mean the person is PR - why does he not have the right to call his spouse?
  2. If TRV is not granted, then what other options are there for the spouse to migrate to Canada? - I certainly don't believe that IRCC would want to keep them apart
Sorry if my questions sound too naive, but I am tired of listening to suggestions and possibilities from different agents and want to know what exactly is the reason.

I request the experienced and seniors members to please shed some light on this topic.

It's a pretty straight-forward answer. TRVs are tourist visas and are intended for individuals who wish to visit Canada temporarily. Too many people try to use TRVs to move to Canada or live in Canada long term. People who have spouses who are in Canada on work permits or who are PRs or citizens are more likely to have plans to remain in Canada long term - so that's why refusal rates are higher.

If the spouse in Canada is a PR or Canadian citizen, they should apply to sponsor their partner for PR. If the spouse in Canada is on a work permit and has a full time job that is NOC A, B or 0, then the spouse should apply for an open work permit.

Thank you so much for the detailed answer.

My husband is still on work permit and comes under NOC A.

So if I am not mistaken, he now needs to apply for the open work permit of spouse right?
