Hello my dear friend,
If you are already on a Work Permit which can be open or closed, you can invite your wife / spouse or common law partner on an Open Work Permit. This is a privilege given to you as a Work Permit holder. Having said that, it is not obligatory for the immigration officer to grant the open work permit for your spouse.
You have explain in detail as to why this permit needs to be granted to your spouse. Below are the points that you need to showcase:
-Your Work experience documents: You need to attach your Offer letter, Work experience letter, Employer confirmation letter, Salary Slips (minimum 2) and any other document that proves your employment
-Your Savings: You have to show proof of funds for your spouse in your bank account which can be Canadian or your home country Bank account. Please check the proof of funds section on IRCC website.
-Your Income tax documents: If you have filed taxes in Canada, please attach the documents
-Course Completion Certificate: If you have studied in Canada previous to your study, you need to attach the transcript of Course completion certificate along with this application
-Marriage proof: You need to prove that your spouse or common law partner is actually married to you or you have been knowing each other for a very long time. This is the vital document. This can be shown by marriage certificate, photographs, your chat history, email history and many more. This is the most ignored section which leads to the visa rejection.
All in all, you can invite your spouse and file for an open work permit for him/her with proper documentation.
