Hi Krunal,

I would like to ask if this list applies to spouse of PGWP? I am currently holding an open permit on this program, I was just wondering, how will I apply my spouse to obtain an open work permit. I am trying to find the steps on how to do it. My wife is currently residing in the Philippines.

If you have an idea regarding my situation, it would be of great help to me and my spouse.

Thank you in advance.

Hello Boladan,

Sorry for late reply. If you have applied PGWP through paper application, you can link this via my CIC online account. Sometime it's take a month or more to link your application online. If it says application not found then try to link again after few days.

Hello rll

This steps you can use to link your paper application to online CIC account if you have already applied for your spouse open work permit through paper application. If you want to apply for your spouse OWP then you must have job in NOC 0, A or B category.

Hi krunal

I did not apply yet for my wife’s OWP. I was just about to start the application, since I just received my PGWP.
Can I apply through online by linking into my online CIC account. But what will I do next after this step, is it just like what I did on my PGWP application online?

It says on the website that I must possess a job offer or contract with NOC 0, A, or B. I am current working as Food Service Supervisor, and consider as NOC B. I must also attach three payslips am I correct?

I was just wondering, what are the documents or forms from the CIC that are needed? Do I need to provide proof of funds for this application also?

If you know the guide on how to apply, it would be grateful if let me know.

Thank you,
rll

You Can apply dependent OWP for your wife through paper application or online. It's up to you. If you're applying online then you don't need to link your application but paper application you can do.
