Hello!
I have a question

My wife got a study permit, and went to school and she will start soon, I want to apply for a work permit and our 2 years old daughter. Should we use IRCC new Portal or Gckey? What can you advice? What is the best to use between the two ! Which option did you use to apply ? It’s so quick

I think you do not have option. You must use GC key System only.
