Canada - Open WorkPermit(work with any employer)

I just wanted make my entry about this in the Blogosphere as this is

one of topics that you scarcely get across an informative article/post.

In Canada, there is way that the spouses of workpermit holders(Temporary foreign workers) can work.Another interesting aspect

is if you opt for open workpermit, the applicant can work for any employer who can offer a job for the applicant's capabilities.

This workpermit is also applicable for Students who are in Canada on a student permit and want to work part time during the course

of their studies.

The application and instructions can be found at/downloaded from:

www.cic.gc.ca/ENGLISH/pdf/kits/guides/5553E.PDF

In the case of my spouse, I did not submit any documents proving her academic qualifications or professional experience.But the

workpermit was approved without any issues/questions and the process took about 10 business days from the date of

posting/sending the documents to Immigration Canada. In the workpermit application there is no "field" or "attribute"

where you mention that it is an "open" work permit. All you have to do is just describe it in the "E - Additional Information"

Section.

The appellation[Open Work permit] usually causes a bit of confusion and most of google search results around

"open" workpermits for Canada barely will give you any clear directions(I hope atleast until this entry is published

and this becomes "search" able :)- )

For more details please check:

Again don't specifically look for open work permit or work permit for spouses of work permit holders, read through the application form

which will give necessary details.When I applied in October 2009 for my spouse these were the list of documents:

Wings of Fire – Dr APJ Abdul Kalam’s Autobiography - Reading notes

This is an Autobiography by one of the India`s most celebrated scientists and leaders, who has a tremendous following across all different age groups especially India`s youngsters. It may lack the literary flamboyance of an eminent author; it may not meet the standards that a literary critic would weigh in on , but it leaves you glued to the life of a boat owner’s son, his passion towards rocketry, science , his career struggle through the red-tape clad ladders of the Indian Bureaucracy which aligns itself with the journey of India's technology advancement and self-reliance in the field of Rocketry and nuclear defence capabilities. It draws you into an aura of amazement and wonder when you read through the indescribable sense of accomplishment at the peak period of Mr. Kalam’s life and sometime make you feel that they are your(reader’s) accomplishments and that`s the indisputable success fa...

Recipe : Blackened Salmon Masala

Am a die hard fish lover, especially the Salmon. The most favorite Salmon recipe is the thick and spicy, coconut Gravy with cooked Salmon and sour and unripe mangoes. Another favorite is deep fried, spicy and oily marinated Salmon fry. But trust me, both of them are thoroughly unhealthy and cholesterol rich. The latter, deep fry one can be made using Olive oil but wouldn’t taste that great. In the light of my 2010 - theme of life – FFF (just not to let your imagination go elsewhere – Fit, Fitter, Fittest) , was looking for a heart-friendly, low calorie Salmon recipe that doesn’t take a lot of prep work or kitchen work and here is my kitchen discovery. Ingredients: · Oval shaped Salmon slices(with skin) – 3 · 1tbl spoon – red chili powder(roasted – if you find) · 1/2 tbl spoon – turmeric powder · 6 pinches of salt [will be really low in Sodium, you may want to add more] · ½ tbl spoon – Ginger / Garlic paste · ½ tbl spoo...
