Unable to understand

Are you asking if you want to apply a visitor visa for wife and child?

Or Apply Visitor visa for yourself ?

Not sure what you are asking

Your travel will not have any impact
Wife has to pass eligibility to be approved
So wait it out

My husband is in Canada on SOWP which is valid until next year July, 2024. Does he need to apply for TRV if he want to visit India and coming back to Canada?

If a person is having valid visa and open work permit till next year and had to return to India, can he now apply for ICT visa if any job opportunity materializes from any organization? Please advise.

How would you be eligible for an ICT?
Thanks for the response. Actually now that I have returned to India, the new company I currently work for is giving me opportunity for closed work permit (ICT). Would there be any challenge with ICT visa initiation and processing as I already have valid visa and open work permit.

So you have worked for the company for a year to transfer you? They have the approved LMIA?

Yes, concern is until open work permit and visa is valid, can current company initiate ICT visa for me?
So if you have worked outside Canada for a year with the company in their office and the company are eligible for ICT, and your company has approved LMIA exemption then you can apply for a closed work permit.

Do we need to wait till Aug for current visa and open work permit to expire and then raise new ICT visa assignment? Or we can raise a new ICT visa now itself? Please confirm
