Subject: Applying for Spousal Open Work Permit
  I am here on Foreign Work permit and my family (wife+kids) is here as visitors. My job belongs to NOC Class A. My wife is about to apply for open work permit. Please, I have 2 questions:

1. I am aware Im supposed to include my work permit and copy of LMO in her application, I am missing out any other document?

2. For how long is she supposed to be in Canada, before applying for the work permit?

3. For the kids (3 and 5), do I need to apply for study permit for them or they can go to school just by merely extending their TRP?

Thanks

We were on the same situation 6 months ago,

1. Need proof of marriage, proof that you have been living together (medical insurances, bills, etc). Depending on your nationality your spouse and children may need a Medical Examination, wich would delay the application process (90 days).

2. Your spouse and children could apply for their work permit at the port of entry as soon as they entered to Canada. If they are in legal status now, they can go and apply for their work permit now.

3. Your children´s student permit will probably be linked to your spouse open work permit, so you will not need to pay for a separate student permit. Your children may also be able to go to school with your work permit, you should go to the school and ask them what do you exactly need.

Hope this help!
