Hello..I need help urgent! I just got a pos graduation work permit that is valid for one year. My boyfriend has a young professional work permit that is going to expire in august. If we get married before August will it make it easy for him to extend his work permit?

you could get a common-law declaration, and he would then be able to apply for a spousal open WP. However it would only be issued for the length of time that your WP is valid for.

Your husband to be should apply for PR (through Express Entry) as soon as possible. In fact, he should complete a PR application and OWP application, pay the appropriate fees for both applications, and submit both simultaneously. Processing time for OWP is within 4 months.

Good luck.

Cheers!
 
I got it in may..so it expires may 2016. We can't applied for commom law declaration cause we were not living together for one year. However we thought about get married so he could applied for spousal open work permit but I don't know if it is gonna work since we were not married when I got my work permit
