Hi everyone ,
Currently I'm on Post Graduate Work Permit. I did my Master's at McGill University and was graduated in 2013. I started my job 3 weeks ago as a Software Developer in Vancouver. me and my wife were in relationship for 6.5 years and we married in August 2014. I'm paid well.
I want to apply for her visa so she can come here to Canada and join me. I haven't applied for PR yet. I heard there are two ways to apply for her visa :
1.Visitor visa : which I heard is very risky and most of the time doesn't work.
2.Open work permit with Temporary resident visa
QUESTION 1: Is it a right decision to apply open work permit for her ? Is it the type that should be usually applied ?
I'm applying for the second one for my wife. I filled the eligiblity form online and I answered to all the question :
What would you like to do in Canada?
Work
How long are you planning to stay in Canada?
Temporarily - more than 6 months
Do you have a written offer from an employer in Canada?
No
Will you be coming to Canada with a spouse or common-law partner who is, or will be, working in Canada as a temporary worker or who is, or will be, a full-time student at a university, community college, CEGEP or other authorized educational institution?
Yes
Are you of working age, and a dependent of a person who is (or will be)
o working in Canada, or
o a full-time student at a designated learning institution?
Yes
What type of work permit do you want to apply for?
A work permit for a spouse, common-law partner or child of a skilled worker or international student
Are you accompanying a family member that has status in Canada, or has recently been approved to come to Canada?
Yes
Now that I want to upload our documents on CIC website, I have a document checklist which I believe lacks a lot of things !
It requires us to upload these documents :
1.Digital Photo
2.Copy of Passport
3.Proof of relationship
Optional :
1.Schedule 1
2.Letter of explanation
I thought that I have to provide some documents about ties back our country, her work experience and education, my employment letter, my work permit and visa and financial abilities and lots of other documents. But they are not required !!! and I don't know where to upload them !
I'm getting nervous that I'm doing something wrong or I have to apply another type of visa for her.
I would appreciate your help if you could help me.
