Hello...

You can apply for an OPEN WORK PERMIT for your spouse.
It allows your spouse to accompany you in Canada and also to work there freely while you are studying.

Your spouse need a TRV. She must file a separate application for TRV, send both applications (including yours) in one envelope.

Hi,



Your spouse need a TRV. She must file a separate application for TRV, send both applications (including yours) in one envelope.

TRV is required to travel to Canada. That's it.
To maintain your legal status in Canada, one needs some CATEGORIZED PERMIT i.e Study Permit, Work Permit, Open Work Permit, etc....

TRV is the essential part no doubt because one can't travel without it but one also needs some permit to maintain legal status in Canada and in the current case Open Work Permit for spouse would best fit.

TRV gives you a legal status to remain in Canada as a visitor for minimum 6 months.

YES, you both should apply together.

You will submit the following applications set:

- Your Study Permit
- Your Spouse's Open Work Permit
- TRV Application of both

You do not have to apply for both OWP & TRV at the same time. Application for OWP will automatically cover TRV request.

Help your spouse or common-law partner work in Canada
Determine your eligibility
Your spouse or common-law partner may apply for a work permit if:



A)you are a full-time student at:

1)a public post-secondary institution, such as a college or university or collège d’enseignement général et professionnel (CEGEP) in Quebec
2)a private post-secondary institution that operates under the same rules and regulations as a public institution, and receives at least 50 percent of its financing for its overall operations from government grants (currently, only private college-level educational institutions in Quebec qualify) or
3)a Canadian private institution authorized by provincial statute to confer degrees

B)you have a valid study permit

My question is until we get a valid study permit our spouse can not apply for Open Work Permit? So what should we do as we will be applying at the same time.

Someone told me that spouse should apply for TRV and Visit Visa and then after landing apply for an Open Work Permit.

Waiting for a reply
Thanks

Your choice if you apply for a TRV or OWP. An application for OWP automatically include a request for a TRV.

1. TRV; Your spouse need to apply separately & send her TRV application along with your SP application in one envelope.
2. OWP; Fill up IMM1295, 'Application for a WP made outside of Canada' & send it along with yours.

You (& spouse) get SP/OWP at POE. Initially, you (& spouse) get only TRV (with approval for SP/OWP) to enter Canada.
