My wife is currently a dependent (SOWP holder) under my study permit sponsorship. Given that she has one year of work experience in Canada and I have recently completed my studies here, is it feasible for her to be the primary applicant for a new permanent residency application ?
Can a Spouse Open Work Permit (SOWP) holder transition to a primary applicant for Permanent Residency (PR)?

What do you mean that you have study permit sponsorship? If you have completed your studies, how would you be eligible for PR?
Yes, I have successfully completed my degree and have applied for a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP).
