The provincial nomination alone will not give an open work permit. Did you include your wife in the AINP application? When did you get married?

Similar condition is for me. We got married on 2014 and I have added her along with my AINP application. Hope to get nomination within month or two.

Yes she was included in my application. I have been married for 8 years.

Spouses or common-law partners of work permit holders who have been nominated for permanent residence by a province are entitled to open work permits for the duration of the work permit of the provincial nominee principal applicant, irrespective of the skill level of the principal applicant’s occupation.http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/temp/work/opinion/territories-provinces.asp

Hello my friends,


My wife got the nomination from BC in category of Skill immigration-international post-graduate. My name also mentioned as her dependent in her application.

She has also Post-graduate Open Work Permit till 2021. My open work permit (as dependent of international Student) going to be expired on March 2020.

She is working part-time (retail).

we going to apply our PR for provincial nominees class (PNC) paper base in this week.

Since providing the AOR takes long time, I was wondering if we need to wait till receiving the AOR and then apply for my open work permit, or even better if I can apply now for my OWP base on her nomination and her open work permit.

Please give me your opinion. Any advice can be helpful.

Thank you all.
