Spousal Open Work Permit

Duplessis Immigration Law

Work Flexibility for Families in Canada

If your spouse is studying or working in Canada, you may qualify for a Spousal Open Work Permit. This permit allows you to work for any employer anywhere in Canada, providing invaluable flexibility for your family’s settlement and growth.

Eligibility depends on your spouse’s status — they must hold a valid study or work permit, and in most cases, be engaged in full-time studies or working in a qualifying job.

Common Mistakes

Common mistakes include applicants assuming all spouses are eligible without checking the specific requirements or forgetting to provide the necessary proof of relationship and the spouse’s current permit status.
