Please I'm confused about the new policy can the spouse of someone who is going for post graduate diploma still get work permit.
Nope.

Your spouse can only apply to visit you on a visit visa. After you get your PR, you can sponsor her.

It is subject to review in 2025 and a Ministerial instruction at the moment.

Only student exempted are masters and Phd students.

Continuation from my last post [url] https://www.nairaland.com/7977932/2-year-old-marriage-shaking [/url]

I told her today that she should never use marriage to threaten me and if she’s tired she should leave . I told her I won’t be the first man to get divorce and I won’t be the last .

I told her that the day I hear that word that she should just get out of my house . She has packed her bags and she’s leaving . I just told her I was tired of her using our marriage as a tool for blackmail and that she should go if she wants to go .


She said she’s tired and she’s leaving tomorrow, she has already packed her bags .

I know I’m not perfect but as couples we should always solve our marital problems as long as it’s not domestic violence (I’ve never laid hands on her before), instead of threatening to quit at every little opportunity.

I’m really fed up
Let her go. Marriage is not a do-or-die affair. Your mental health and peace of mind is important.

Canada originally belongs to the first nations natives and they are the original citizens.

The rest are either immigrants or kids and grandkids of immigrants

I saw this coming
They will suffer for it. Canada makes about cad$6bn from international students in a year.

This change is not well thought out. For example, I have applicant who already have a Letter of Acceptance, now the path to obtaining a provincial attestation letter was not explained by the minister of Immigration, even the provinces do not have this process in place for students who a currently in the process.
Why not let this take effect at a later date like 6months time so all the systems are properly in place.
Totally unfair on the students who are currently in the process.

I just paid cad$16,000 for one of my applicant with the hope that her husband will join on an open work permits, Now, I have to break the bad news.

The implementation of this policy change is totally poor snd unfair to the students caught in the process.
Travel. by CockPit(op):
Effective today, a huge change is sweeping acros canada study permts process as announced my the Immigration Minister Marc Miller.

1. Study Permits approval will be cut by 35% till 2025.

2. Before you could submit a Study Permit application, you will need an attestation letter from the province of your school in Canada.

Now the big concern is provinces are yet to work out how to administer the attestation letter process so if you have a a pending study permits application, you may be caught in the crosshair.

3. Spousal open work permits no longer available if you are not a masters or Phd student in Canada. It means your spouse will have to apply for a visitors visa.

Effective today January 22 2024

skills is not also certain.
So you mean to tell me if I
I am a tailor and good with it, I wont get customers to sew new clothes. I know how much I pay my tailors. Look at your family members and friends and ask them how much they spent on sewing new clothers inn the past oe months.

Or a mechanic who is not lazy and good with his crafts, peoples car don't break down anymore?

I went to fix brakes and a few other things on my wife's car at the mechanic workshop and was charged $980 at the end of the day for parts and workmanship.

Last week, the rotor on my furnace broke down and I called the furnace technician, I ended up parting with $1000 for a 1 hour work including parts.

My water line froze last week and I called the plumber just take a look. He came and looked around and told me the lines will unfreeze when the furnace starts working and the house is heated up. Just for showing and checking doing anything, I had to pay him $60.


Skill means you have a knowledge to solve a particular problem that most people will have on a regular basis.

Compare that with a linguistic or english graduates who spent 4 years studying and coming out more confused with no REAL LIFE SKILLs to solve REAL LIFE PROBLEMS.

If a skilled person does not succeed, its either he is lazy or totally usurious.

Cars will continue to break down every day requiring mechanics, new houses will be built requiring plumbers and electricians.

people will need gates for all the new houses and require the services of plumbers, new houses will need to be wired needing the services of electricians.

I am an international education consultant and I see a lot of people in the university who have no business there . We have a huge population with zero or little skills and our leaders are not intersested in overhauling the present educational system and introduce a working solution.

Most Nigerian graduates are unemployed with ZERO skill to solve REAL LIFE problems.

It is affecting the nation and people like us who have studied how skill acquisition work abroad cannot afford to keep silent anymore.

Our Polytechnics should be a skill aquisition centers traing students to acquire valuable live skills. Skill training should be regulated by the government.

People will need welders for new gates

It is vice versa. There are millions of unemployed and underemployed graduates. There are many skilled people struggling to feed and pay their bills. There are also lots of graduates gainfully employed. Likewise there are lots of skilled persons earning well. Having a skill is not a yardstick to success. Having education is also not a yardstick to success.
Then what exactly is your point?

I know people in my environ who have these skills and they're still poor. They still struggle with their 3 square meal. Some don't even have the means to establish themselves after learning. It is really tough out there bro
I know millions of graduates with zero skills working 30k jobs per months for the past 10 years.

I also know successful trades people who are doing well and taking care of their families.

Bottom line is the skill to solve real life problems which most graduates don't have unfortunately.

There are weddings every weekend and people sew new clothes. Car break down that needs to be fixed. These are real life problems that requires real live skills.
You can go back to school after learning those skills and still have something to fall back on.
FamilyRe: Is My Family Truly Cursed Or Not? by CockPit(m): 6:55pm On Jan 21, 2024
Now, imagine instead of going to school for 4 years, you have gone to learn a skill for 2 years like tailoring, Auto mechanic, plumbing, welding, tiler and so on and your sister and every member of your family have all done likewise gone to learn a skill.

Your family will be in a better position financially.

After school in Nigeria, over 98 percent of the graduates do not have a tangible life skill to succeed in the real world.

As a fashoion designer, you have a skill to solve a real life problem.
I am not against school but i advocate going back to school after you have acquired those skills.

Also, you parents brought you guys into the world to suffer, you were set up to fail from day one. At most your parents should have had only 1 or two kids.

It is not too late to go learn a trade and get a skill.

Times have changed and we must evaluate the world around us and change our approach.

If you work harder, smarter, plan well and invest you will not beg,

If you are lazy, refuse to work or learn a skill and fail to invest or use your time well. You will 100% beg.

No prayers in the whole world or prophecies can change the above.

It has nothing to do with God or devil, just basic laws of nature.

Exceptions are if you win a lottery or your parents are millionaires and willing to support a lazy lifestyle.

There was this very prosperous community in the US in the early 19th century where the pastor always encouraged its members to have a farm and plant something. Fruits, vegetables and lots of things.

Until we begin to think with our brains and solve our owm problems, we will continue to go in circles.
