Hi all,

My and my wife are on Express Entry process. Our point is 455 but it seems like EE point will not go down in near future.
Both of us have master degree, my wife's english is much better than me and I have a brother in Canada but as you see it is not not enough for EE.

We are looking the cheapest way to go there. If i enrol a language course, can my wife get work permit?
(or she can apply for French language course and i can work)


If yes, after 1 year, she will have ''1 year canadian experience'' and our point will be enough (hopefully).

Or if there are another options, please let me know.

Thanks.

Language courses dont qualify for spousal open work permit, you would need to take an actual course like diploma,masters etc. Even then there is no guarantee of open work permit.
