On January 14, the Canadian government announced significant changes to open work permits (OWPs) for certain spouses, common-law partners, and children of temporary foreign workers, effective January 21, 2025.
To help you prepare, here is a summary of the main measures that could affect your temporary foreign workers (TFWs).
If an OWP was approved before these measures take effect and has not yet expired, it will remain valid.
Additionally, if the foreign worker and their spouse are covered by free trade agreements or the TFW is in the process of obtaining permanent residence, they may not be affected by these changes.
