Will an IO suspect our family ties if we apply for TWP with kids along?

[vivenhs]

My wife and myself is expecting our LMO's next month. We planned to bring our kids along to Canada. Can that be a cue for IO to suspect our family ties and deny our Work Permit Application?

What is the NOC category for your jobs???

 

[eduardoF]

will they suspect? yes, they will. does it mean you'll be refused a visa? not necessarily.

if your children are minors, you have the right to bring them along to Canada.

of course, you'll have to convince the IO that you intend to go back to your country after the visa expires. and that will be difficult to do, since in theory you have no "family ties" left in your country of origin.

good luck!

The reason I asked for your NOC Category is because O,A and B generally are allowed to bring their family with them.C and D Not

The kind of work is semi-skilled. If its C or D, Will IO approve the Visa for the worker and deny those of the family members?

 

[BCguy]

C and D generally are not entitled to bring family.

Does OR means either, in the new Action Plan for FSW?

BC Guy / Leon etc.

In the new Action Plan for FSW: to be eligible for processing worker must be in the;

- 38 occupation list OR
- with Arranged Employment

Does OR means either? Does an AE for jobs not on the list also eligible?

 

[Leon]

It's OR. Your AEO needs to be for a skilled job but it doesn't have to be on the list of 38.
