If the principal applicant is a holder of an open work permit (e.g., post-graduation work permit, Working Holiday work permit), their spouse or common-law partner who is applying for the C41 exemption will need to attach a copy of the principal applicant’s work permit to their own application for an open work permit, along with proof that the principal applicant is employed in an occupation in skill level 0, A or B. The applicant’s spouse or common-law partner will also need to provide information about the principal applicant’s employment by attaching supporting documents, including

a letter from their current employer confirming employment or a copy of their employment offer or contract; and
a copy of three of their pay stubs.

как объяснить ситуацию, когда если супруги подают на PGWP+OWP одновременно, им обоим дают пермиты? Студент то еще не работает.

Ведь всем дают, а не выборочно. Я так понимаю, у них там инструкция есть по этому поводу. Потому как я не видел отказов при подаче PGWP+OWP.
