Hi all, I am currently holding a travel visa valid for 6 months stay in Canada. I have just recently applied for the spouse sponsorship, sponsor by my husband. He is a citizen of Canada and he is working right now in Montreal. Moreover, just beginning of this month I have also tried to apply for the open work permit as well. But today unfortunately I got rejected and my case is closed for the following reason. A letter I receive this morning. So what can I do next? Should I apply for the extend stay first since my travel visa will be expire in beginning of June too. :(


Dear,
This refers to your application for a Canadian work permit. According to Canada's Immigration and Refugee
Protection Act and Regulations, as an applicant for a work permit, you must establish that you meet all of the
requirements of Part 11 of the Regulations. You must satisfy an officer that you will not contravene the
conditions of admission and that you do not belong in a category of persons inadmissible to Canada under the
Act. You must also satisfy an officer that your intentions are bona fide and that you will leave Canada by the end
of the period authorized for your stay.
Based on a careful review of the information contained in your application and all of the documentation which
you have provided in support of your application, I am not satisfied that you meet the requirements of the Act
and the Regulations. I am therefore refusing your application.
Subsection 11(1) of the Act states that “a foreign national must, before entering Canada, apply to an officer for a
visa or for any other document required by the Regulations. The visa or document shall be issued if, following an
examination, the officer is satisfied that the foreign national is not inadmissible and meets the requirements of
this Act.” Subsection 2(2) specifies that unless otherwise indicated, references in the Act to “this Act” include
regulations made under it.
This application is closed. Please note that any new information you wish to provide must be submitted with a
new application and processing fee. Should you wish to reapply, I would suggest that you do so only if your
situation has changed substantively or you have significant new information to submit.

You don't qualify for an open work permit - that's why you were refused. If you applied for PR using the outland process, then you will not qualify for a open work permit at any time during the process. If you applied using the inland process, then you will qualify for an open work permit once your application has first stage approval (this takes at least six months). If you applied inland, you should have included an open work permit application with the PR application package. Since you did not do this, you will have to wait until you hear from CIC that you have been approved for stage 1 before you can apply for a open work permit.

Yes - you should apply to extend your visit visa about a month before it expires.

Hi SCYLLA, I have a question for you. I'm from Venezuela and I have a canadian work permit until march/2015, at the moment of my application my wife was close to give birth my son, so some adviser (from VAC caracas) told me that I should apply first and when my boy will get the passport make an application for both (wife and son). I had to come to work in canada and she applied from Venezuela as temporal resident visa and was refused (don't have ties to Venezuela and don't have ties to canada, don't have assets). She owes a house, 2 cars and has a job there, I have a job here (we sent those documents). We re-applied and the result was the same. What are we doing wrong? I have now a 8 month boy that I havent seen in 4 month and is very difficult this situation. thanks in advance

I got my visa rejected last week. My husband is currently studying in Canada. Now I am thinking to apply for an open work permit.

From the forums I got to know that visitor visa for spouse get always rejected.

can I apply for open work permit immediately after my visitor visa rejection?

When you login to you account, if you scroll down, you will see you application, and if you click on it, you will be redirected to another page in which you can see the received messages from CIC. By clicking on the message you can see the content of the message. You most probably should find the rejection letter there.
