I have a Temporary Resident Visa (TRV) for Canada. Can I bring my family with me?

In Canada, there are provisions that allow international students and temporary foreign workers (TFWs) who hold Temporary Resident Visas (TRVs) to bring their family members along with them, including their spouses, common-law partners, and dependent children. These family members are given the opportunity to accompany the primary visa holder and have various options for working and earning money while they are in Canada through Open Work Permits (OWPs). For dependent children, study permits are issued, allowing them to study in Canada without affecting their education.

The rules and eligibility criteria for obtaining OWPs depend on several factors, including the type of permit held by the principal applicant (the work or study permit holder) and the specific family member in question (spouse, common-law partner, or dependent child).

Some key points to consider:

  • Spouses and Common-law Partners of TFWs: Some TFWs working in specific job categories (Other than NOC “C” and “D”) may be eligible to have their spouses and common-law partners apply for an Open Work Permit. This means that the spouses or partners of these TFWs can seek employment in Canada while their loved ones work in their designated roles.
  • Dependent Children of TFWs: Under certain conditions, dependent children of TFWs may also be eligible for Open Work Permits. These conditions are set by Canadian immigration authorities and typically involve factors like age and dependency.
  • Full-time Students: International students who have a valid study permit can sponsor their spouses or common-law partners for an Open Work Permit, as long as they are attending designated educational institutions. This means that the spouse or partner can work in Canada while the student is pursuing their studies.
  • Simultaneous Processing: Canadian visa offices have the capability to process applications for spousal Open Work Permits at the same time as study permit applications. This streamlines the process for couples who plan to come to Canada together for study and work purposes.
  • Arrival in Canada: In some cases, spouses and partners can also apply for an Open Work Permit upon their arrival in Canada, provided they meet certain conditions and requirements.

Overall, Canada’s immigration system is designed to promote family reunification and support the integration of families of international students and temporary foreign workers. The availability of Open Work Permits for family members allows them to contribute to the Canadian workforce and gain valuable experiences during their time in the country.
