Hi Guys,

These days my husband and I are applying for student permit.

We want to fill my part (I'm the spouse and he is the student), they ask me to show:

"Document: Purpose of Travel - Other.
You must submit proof that you are coming to Canada for a temporary visit
Opens a new window
.

Examples of what you can provide as proof:

A scanned copy of:
•Your flight ticket departing Canada,
•Your travel itinerary (e.g. places you will visit or stay, such as hotel booking),
•Proof of a medical appointment".

What I need to add to prove purpose of travel? I coming for my husband studies and will apply for work permit

Will be happy to hear your thoughts..

What is that mean?? I'm coming for my husband studies...maybe I mark something wrong??

Hi,
If you are coming as a spouse of the student, you need to provide "Purpose of travel". It is standard procedure, and I don't think you pressed anything wrong. Basically, what they are asking is that even though your husband is going for studies, what is the purpose of your travel?
Depending on your situation, you could just write that you wish to accompany him and you will only stay there as long as he is studying. There is an open work permit system for spouse of student studying in Canada. You may apply for an open work permit based on that. In that case, you will mention in the purpose of travel that you would find work based on your qualifications and such and accompany your husband in Canada for the duration of his studies. Remember that if you do apply for open work permit, your processing may take longer because then they will process both your applications.
General advice: Try to write a more specific subject line. It might help you get more people to answer to the questions you have.
Best of luck!

Also I will apply for work permit, so I need to add to the latter that i will find job based on my qualifications?

Thank's!!

I am not sure whether as a spouse (OWP), we should mention that I am going to work.

Hello All,

I am about to apply in a similar way. Can anyone who has applied and got the visa share the experience and sample document for 'Purpose of Visit - other' that was written for/by spouse for open work permit?
