Hi I applied for a study permit and got approval for fall 2019 and applied for OWP for my spouse today.
That's great! best wishes, keep us posted.

Hi Dear

I have a problem. I am student in Canada and my study is done. My study permit expires on 31st July. My husband is also here and his work permit expires on 31st July. I have a problem with his work permit. I am going to apply my work permit Tomm. What should I do? Can I go to border to get my permit. Or should I apply my husband's work permit with me under same file.

Regards

Hi, what is the process and documents you submitted?
I just applied online with my visa, uni acceptance letter and his documents. I am not sure we would get the visa because OWP is not guaranteed for spouses of international students.

Hey, Got my passport request today. I heard it takes about 2-3 weeks to be returned... did yours take so long? Also you started the OWP application for your spouse? Thanks
Yay!!! Super congrats! it took about 7-10days. I haven't as yet due to me using my family at home (here) as a reason to return. But we can talk about that privately.

I'm no expert here, but I would recommend that you apply first and after it's approved, then your spouse will be eligible.
