Hi There,

My name is Kemil. I came to Canada as a student in 2017 December. Then I called my wife based on spouse Open Work Permit in 2018 September. She is in Canada right now with me. Now, I just recently graduated in April 2019 and currently I am not holding any B or O category job. I am just working part-time in superstore Walmart. My wife is working in a mechanical company as a factory worker full time. Now I have already apply for My post graduate work permit and My wife's Open work permit extension together.

My question is Should I be concerned about my wife's open work permit extension rejection because I am currently not holding any B or O category job? Is It needed to have one of these category job for main applicant to extend their spouse open work permit with main applicant's Post graduation work permit when they both are in CANADA when they apply? Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Thank you.

Yes your wife will not get an SOWP unless you have a job in NOC O, A or B and 3 pay stubs once you get your PGWP.

Hi all, I have applied both mine( Post graduation work permit) and my wife(Open work permit extension) applications together with my GC key account. I have not submitted any financial or supportive documents of mine into my wife's application. I just want to know, if my application and my wife application will be accessed together by one immigration officer or separately? Our reference code is the same and I have applied both our application in one GC account at the same time.

Thanks.
