Hi everyone,

I just read this on the cic site:

"Full-time students at a publicly-funded post-secondary or
degree-granting institution may work in Canada. You may work at a job
that is:

on campus at the school, college or university where you study (no
work permit is needed); or
related to your studies, for up to one year, and only after
graduation.

In these cases, your spouse or common-law partner may also apply to
get a work permit."

Does the last line mean that if I'm on a student visa and studying for
my Masters in IT, then my husband can apply for a work-permit? Can
anyone elaborate on this?

Thanks in advance,

Vicky

Hi

As u r full time student , u husbend can get an open work permit to
work in canada and it will expire when u student authorization will
expire. He does not need any job offer to apply for workpermit. He can
get is without job offer because u r full time student.

I hope this will help

Regards

Ali

Yes. It means he can apply for an open ended work permit to allow him to
work as long as you are satisfying the conditions on the page about being on
the right kind of course for the right length of time etc.
