This applies only if the spouse has worked in Canada:

Part E: Occupation and Education Obtained in CANADA (spouse or common-law partner only, if applicable)

(The application guide actually has 'CANADA' written in uppercase! ::) )

This is the credited response. OP, discard the earlier response if your spouse's work experience was outside Canada. I was surprised by CanadaWeCome's answer and was going through the forms and the guide once again when shashidhar_sm confirmed what I had just verified. OINP form only asks to list spouse's work experience IN Canada, not for foreign work experience. I am about to wrap up my OINP application as well. Best wishes to you.

Dear @MooseNBooze...Hold your horses there...

Before you go ahead and make your assumptions whether the @shyama's spouse has or hasen't worked in CANADA...

Please read through @shyama's post AGAIN and point to me where has S/he disclosed the location of spouse's work experience?

@shyama just enquired if S/he needs to send spouse's work experience docs or not and S/he could not see where the applications asks for those docs (if at all required), so I just responded, with an 'Yes' that S/he needs to mention (and attach) spouse's work experience, and its asked under section 'E' thats all. Nothing more nothing less...just to the point.

And I assume when @shyama looks at section 'E' as directed S/he is intelligent enough the read the word CANADA there (yes in UPPERCASE) and construe that this sections asks for the docs if and only if the spouse has worked in CANADA period.

So...the question is why should @shyama discard my response? And it is YOUR wild imagination that you think @shyama's spouse's has work experience must be in CANADA so @shyama need not attach spouse's experience details. And after that your being surprised at my response totally beats me...

Hope you were not high on Booze while replying and get your sane back...before the ITA. :p 8)

And all the very best for your OINP application...

Fair enough to point out that OP's spouse may actually have work experience in Canada. But methinks thou protesteth too much ;D. Re-read your answer above. It does not distinguish between the two kinds of work experiences. Now re-read my answer, especially the sentence with the word "discard" in it. I said "discard the earlier response if your spouse's work experience was outside Canada" [emphasis not in original]. I didn't say "since your spouse's work experience was outside Canada." Who's the one making assumptions? Maybe both of us, maybe just me :-[

In any case, no point in squabbling over this. I think you and I both served a function. You provided the correct answer for one kind of work experience, while I and shashidhar_sm offered a more nuanced (and I believe a more accurate) answer. I think we're agreed that OP only needs to provide LORs for spouse if the experience was within Canada, right? That should help the OP. After all, that's what the forum is all about (besides letting off steam and having some fun, of course, like me drinking and posting ;)).

I write in good faith. I wish you all the best.
