Bringing Your Spouse & Family Abroad: Dependent Visa Guide
Many students and skilled workers in Panipat wish to travel abroad with their spouses. Understanding spousal work permit policies helps keep families together.
1. Canada Spousal Open Work Permit (SOWP)
Spouses of international students enrolled in eligible Master’s or professional doctoral programs (or skilled workers in TEER 0, 1, 2, 3 occupations) can apply for an Open Work Permit, allowing them to work full-time for any Canadian employer.
2. Australia Subsequent Entry (Subclass 500)
Under Australian student visa rules, primary applicants can include their married spouse and dependent children as subsequent entrants. Spouses get work rights based on the primary course level (e.g., full-time work rights if studying Master's level).
3. Key Documentation for Spousal Visas
- Registered Marriage Certificate.
- Proof of joint financial accounts, marriage photographs, and living history.
- Clean medical and police clearance certificates.
