Hello,
I'm on a work permit from last one year. I got married recently and my wife came to Canada last week with visitor visa (assuming it's a dependent visitor visa - added marriage certificate as well). At port of entry, the immigration officer given stay for only 6 months even though she is dependent on me. She didn't received any landing paper on arrival at port of entry. I would like to know what I can do to extend her visa and get landing paper from immigration for adding her to Ontario health card. It will be great if anyone can respond for below questions.
Is there any process to change her visa to dependent visitor visa to get landing paper?
Does it work if I apply open work permit for her?
Do I need to apply any visa extension a month before visa validity (6 months period) if work permit is approved?
Thank you.
