question about applying for open work permit for my spouse

I am a university graduate and got a job as engineer, I am on my post graduate work permit and plan to help my wife apply for open work permit online. However, after answering the eligibility check questionnaire carefully the following checklist is generated:

- Application for Work Permit Made Outside of Canada (IMM1295)
- Passport or travel document (required)
- Digital Photo (required)
- General Education and Employment Form (required)

and two optional docs:

- Schedule 1
- Letter of Explanation

What really baffles me is that they are not asking for my information at all! They didn't ask for our proof of relationship, didn't ask for my job offer or income, didn't ask for her means of financial support, this is really baffling to me since I think these are critical pieces of information for this application.
Can someone with experience applying open work permit for his/her spouse give me some insight please? I am thinking about add all my information and our marriage certificate to the letter of explanation, but really not sure if this is the right way to do it.

I would really appreciate anyone that can help me.

Thanks,
Dan
