Under the PNP as a long haul trucker, Judy is absolutely right your wife cannot work for the first year, so she will be like me 'A lady of Leisure' for the first year.
What part of Canada are you planning to move too?

i will be going to either saskatoon or winnipeg, the reason i ask this question is that although we both really want to move to canada, with having no children to keep her company, go out with e.t.c., we both know that after a few weeks of being alone she will get incredibly homesick, be crying all the time and eventually that will be the end of our dream, whereas if she can stay at home untill she can get a work permit, her time can be filled with job hunting, and making new friends at work which equals a happy move.

hi shazza,
i will be going to either saskatoon or winnipeg, the reason i ask this question is that although we both really want to move to canada, with having no children to keep her company, go out with e.t.c., we both know that after a few weeks of being alone she will get incredibly homesick, be crying all the time and eventually that will be the end of our dream, whereas if she can stay at home untill she can get a work permit, her time can be filled with job hunting, and making new friends at work which equals a happy move.

I to will be in the same boat as your OH, but I have 2 young girls to keep me active! However during school and my OH working ( HGV DRIVER ) the days will be long!!!
![Thumb Down](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/thumbdown.gif)
perhaps your OH could take up voluntary work?? I am researching areas of interest to me at the moment.........maybe she could try SPCA or something close to heart??
If all else fails you could always buy her a new puppy........hours of training to be done there!!!!

Hi Paul,
If you are going through PNP process for your job, your wife will be able to be a volunteer, as long as its an non-profit organisation.

My OH is a truck driver like paul29 so he will be out on the road for days on end, so there`s fat chance of him rising to the occasion.........much tooooo tired I would imagine!!!!

MAYBE, thats the answer then....... if paul29 and wifee have NO kids then
perhaps they could consider starting a family ( just thought - mind)!!!
