Visitor visa for Spouses and Open Work Permit Query

[crovax]

Hi,
I am currently an international graduate student in Canada and I have been in Canada for 3 months. My wife is going to visit me soon with a tourist visa and planning to stay here until my graduation. My query is:

1. Can she get a visitor visa now, before I complete my first 6 months at college?
2. If she can get it before 6 months, then can she get an open work permit before I will be eligible to get a work permit (after completing 6 months of study)?

My wife and me are both from Turkey and we held MSc and MA degrees from UK.

Thanks.

Yes she is eligible to apply for Visit Visa anytime, she can come here and stay with you as long as your visa remains valid which is a dependent visa with an open work permit. Which province are u in?

Hi all. Hope that you are doing well.

I have one small query regarding Spouse open work permit application submission through online way.

My wife has also got the visitor visa and she is coming with me to Canada .After arriving there, i am planning to apply open work permit for my wife.For this purpose, what is the list of documents we have to upload for the open work permit application submission

From Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) official page, i came to know that the following 4 docs need to upload while applying for open work permit in canada

1.IMM 5710 application
2.Spouse r passport
3.Merriage certificate
4.Spouse r digital pic


But my concern is, from some other sites and sources i came to know that with the above four docs, we have to submit my study permit paper, letter from university and also financial bank statements which will show we have 10000+ 4000 CAD. But these papers has already been shown by us while we have applied for the visitor visa application.And also in online application sitre, there is no option to upload this papers.

It will be helpful for me if you help me with any concrete information regarding the above issue as it will help me to take preparayion in advance.

Thanks and Regards
Parvez
