Hello Experts,

I am currently on PR for 2 years. I am getting married this march 30th. My wife already has a visitor visa approved.

We will be traveling together (may cross immigration separately - not yet decided) in April.

She has work experience in india and wanted to work in Canada.

Can you please let me know if i can apply for her work permit along with spousal application?

The website says to submit spousal, permanent resident and work permit together. I know spousal and work permit applications... what about Permanent Resident application?

Please help me with the step by step process and what all docs i need to gather to apply. How long does it take to get work permit approved?

Thanks

You would be applying inland for permanent residency in conjunction with the Open Work Permit.

Thanks kcward7.

So all 3 applications should be submitted at once? Are all the docs required to submit earlier? Is indian marriage certificate is fine to upload or it need to be notarized?

Let me know plz

There is not 3 applications. You are applying permanent residency and an Open Work Permit.
