Hi,

I have been working on open work permit for 2 and a half years. And I came to Canada dependent on my Spouse.

Is there any limit for working under Open work permit? I read somewhere that you can work for 4 years if you have Open work permit. Is this true?

Can anyone help me ?

Thanks

It depends on the terms of the OWP given to you. Check to see for how long it is valid, you can also check the Help Centre, http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/helpcentre/answer.asp?qnum=169&top=17
