Is your spouse working? When did they apply for PR? Have you been added to their applications? Did you recently get married? Do you have a history of dating in person with documentation? How long did you date? Did you have a wedding that would be culturally appropriate and did you families attend?

Confirming that a spouse of a protected person may apply for open work permit. I was able to obtain my work permit after my spouse was declared a convention refugee. I already have a valid TRV for awhile now so I was able to fly in as a visitor. I then applied for OWP within Canada in January and had it by the start of April.

Thanks, @Canadian_rainbow for answering our questions. :)

My wife is a teacher and there is a medical requirement for a teacher for work permit renewal. without medical
application is not forwarded in GC account
My question to you is that unless we have the IRCC instructions, how can we go to the IRCC medical panel and get the medical done without any paper and instructions.
Anybody Please guide

Hi,
No, we just applied for open wp. Because of he is spouse of convention refugee. No job offer. Thank you so much!
***hi Just want to ask did your spouse included you in PR application as inland application or outland application before you applied your work permit? ,,because i also have same case as you but my PR application as outland overseas applicant because that time i did not had trv.
