Requesting clarification on Open work permits for family members of foreignworkers. Foreign worker and spouse already in Canada working on valid work permit/Open work permit. A new high skill high wage LMIA has been approved, and foreign worker is applying to extend stay as a worker with a new LMIA Does spouse qualify to apply at the same time as the worker currently? Please clarify As well please clarify the following scenario: Foreign worker and spouse applied to extend stay as workers with an LMIA in process. Applications refused as the LMIA was not received on time. Foreign worker will apply to restore status as a worker with an LMIA (high skill occupation), can spouse apply to restore status as well under the new rules if occupation is not on list? Thank you in advance, [NAME REDACTED]
