Postby keyur.jinwala on Sat Apr 23, 2011 7:28 pm

Hi

I am an Indian citizen currently in Canada on WP (SPP) from Indian IT Company
I've my visa and WP till Nov 2011.

I've my wife also here with me and I want to apply for her WP as well. She too is an Indian citizen. Could anyone answer following?

1. Can she apply for Open WP (from within Canada as she is with me in Canada)? If yes, what is the process?
2. How much time does it take to process dependent WP?
3. What are the supporting documents needed for the same?

Assuming you are both within Canada, options for her include an inland change of terms application to Vegreville, Alberta, or a work permit application submitted to a visa office outside of the country. A rough estimate for either case is 6 weeks for processing; specific requirements will depend on the method selected and the specific location of the submission if outside of the country.
