Hello Everyone,

I have one simple query.

I am an international student and I am going to marry a girl who is also an international student. Now, the thing is that I will be having 3 years of post-grad work permit in next April while she has already applied for WP but she will get just 1 year of WP. We will get married before I get my Work permit so my question is that...

- If she becomes my wife before I get my Work permit, Can she apply for 3 years of work permit on the basis of dependency? If yes then, Is there any extra procedure or application we have to do before she applies for that dependent work permit? Will this leave any bad impression on Canada immigration and will it affect our future immigration applications?

I will be much obliged if anyone can guide me clearly for this. I am too much confused for now.

Thank you

Hi,

Is this rule common for all the provinces of Canada or just for Ontario?

DO I have to prove that we are married to CIC before my wife applies for Work permit? I think I have to do this in case of sponsorship only when my spouse wanna apply for PR on basis of me. Can you give me the link for the application for spousal work permit?
