I applied for my study permit and my husband's OWP and my dependent child's Visa in one go and they were all approved.
Here's what I did:
in the section where it asked for my proof of financial support I uploaded our largest bank account statement (in my name only), All assets we had( houses, cars etc), both our pay slips and all other income sources we had.
He is not required to show his own proof of fund, tou have to prove that you can support the both of you.
In his purpose of travel, he wrote a letter indicating that he wanted to come accompany me so that we could maintain our family unit and that he wanted to work to provide additional financial support and gain international work experience as that would be beneficial to his career once he returned home along with some fluff items.
we also included all documents that could prove his academic qualifications a copy of his resume and police certificate. He was also not required to prove his language proficiency

Thanks, we applied from Jamaica, processing time here is about 6 weeks we got approved in 4. we also applied online, I found it much easier.
I will email you the letters we wrote.
Also we didn't include any rental information, we just ensured that we had enough money to cover one year of my study my living expenses and the addition money for his stay and my dependent child. my letter will show you how we established ties to our country.

Hey @TracyAT , we are in a very similar situation wondering what to fill in the Purpose of Travel letter.
Could you please send me yours as an example (email: diegoelias1@gmail.com)?
My wife will come with me while I am doing my post-doc there and she will request an OWP.
