Hi there,

I am a software engineer in Canada on PGWP. I want to bring my spouse to Canada. I am wondering if i can apply for their SOWP when i am on PGWP or if i should just apply for her visit visa?
What is a quicker and better option? Please guide me if there is any other way to bring my spouse here.
Also, what is considered a skilled worker? Is a software engineer considered a skilled worker?

Any help is appreciated! Thank you

If she wants to live in Canada OWP would be the correct option. How long have you been married?

Do you have a good in person dating history? After you got married how much time did you spend together in person? Was this an arranged marriage?
