My wife is an international student in Canada and she has around 6 months left on her study permit. She will extend her permit but she is currently out of Canada. I want to apply for a visa to go with her but I am wondering if it's better to apply for SOWP or TRV in our case?

I know it's not possible to get a SOWP before she extends her study permit but I am wondering if it's better to try that because I want to be with her in Canada and I was unable to do that until now because of my own studies.

What do you think?
