Default temp work permit

I have been told that whilst i am waiting for my spousal visa to come through i can be granted a temporary work visa, is there truth in this? i will be moving to canada on the 30th of this month.

If the spousal application is being processed outside Canada, you can't apply for a WP. If you are able to get an approved LMO, you can apply outside Canada or at a Port of Entry if don't require either a TRV or a Medical.

In this case MattWebb has answered your question. But, if there are any other abbreviations you don't know, you're likely to find them in the Wiki article called Canadian Abbreviations.
