I am in the pool for IEC program in Canada and I am thinking about applying for a spouse open work permit, but I am a bit confused. What if I send all documents for a spouse open work permit and in a few days get invitation to apply for IEC program? What should I do in such situation? Will they automatically refuse one of my applications? Or maybe I should wait for the final round of invitations and only then apply for a spouse open work permit? But nobody knows when the final round is announced... I hope somebody has been in a similar situation and will be able to help me. Thank you in advance!
