Hi,

Looking for some advice. My wife is in India, we are newly married. I am on an open work permit and want to bring her to Canada with me.

The SOWP processing times from India are pretty long right now. I was considering inviting her for my graduation (to show a temporary visit) on TRV and applying for SOWP from inside Canada since its faster. If we apply for TRV stating graduation and a short stay and then apply for SOWP would this reflect on her or does IRCC not care about that?

Another option is registering her to a course and inviting her on a study permit. Is it possible to bring her here and convert study permit to SOWP under me, or would the study permit need to be cancelled first?
Does anyone have any experience with this?
