Hi, I'm a temporary foreign worker on open work permit. I just want to say I am able to come here last August while my spouse is already in Canada also as TFW. If you have a pre approved letter for your visa then that's no issue. Problem will be at the airport if you don't have employment waiting for you in Canada they won't let you in. Was denied the first time for boarding but was able to board the 2nd time when I showed letter of employment.

Hey I’m also I similar situation. Please confirm if you were able to travel
You'll need special authorization or prof that you have a job in Canada along with your job offer, employer contact information, etc. If allowed to board you need your own quarantine plan.

What if owp holder is accompanying spouse which already has study permit, as per cic website accompanying spouse and dependents do not require authorisation letter but they must show why they are coming like getting spouse settled in canada
