my wife and kids had approval of refugees and become a protected persons .
I did not apply for refugees with them because I had temporary work permit. and I still working here in Canada
I have heard , that I can apply for PR with them and also I can apply at the same time for open work permit
So is that ture or I have to wait till I get PR

You can be added to their PR application but don’t be.I’d be that gives you access to a WP while you wait.
