Hello Friends,
Please clarify;
I am currently working in Nova Scotia and Nominated by the province for the immigration under International Graduate Provincial Nominee stream. My job skill level is C. My wife is currently here on a visitor visa. I would like to get a work permit for my spouse as well. As per the link on cic web site --> under question "Can my spouse or common-law partner work in Canada?" my job must be listed in Skill Level 0, A or B in the National Occupational Classification in order for me to apply for a spousal open work permit.
While I was checking CANADAVISA website, I found the link regarding open work permit and It states "This skill level requirement does not apply to principal temporary foreign workers who have been nominated for permanent residence by a province (provincial nominees)."
I tried looking for this information on cic.gc.ca but I was unable to find anything. Please advise where I can confirm this information on cic website.
Thanks for your reply in advance,
