Hi,

I am new here and this is my first post. I am going to join the University of Toronto as a postdoctoral scientist in Fall. Me and my wife are applying for a visa. I have filled out the form IMM 1295. However, we are confused about my wife's visa. What kind of visa should she apply for?
First I thought a visitor visa - however that requires that she has to return back. I was advised to apply for the open work permit (OWP). For that she also needs to fill the IMM1295 form. However, what should I provide in other documents - the example given are return ticket, medical certification, but none of these apply to us. Can she write a letter stating that she will be accompanying me and will be there until I am there? Does she have to provide previous employment letter like I had to? What else can be provided in 'other documents'?

Thanks.
