My wife is Foreign worker skill level O,A or B in Management Position. she just been nominated for Permanent Resident by Province Nominee, we were married in Nova Scotia 3months ago, but i have to leave NS my 6month stay as (U.S Citizen) was over.. Now its 2013 i can visit again. My Question is - would it better to apply in (Port of Entry) for my (open work Permit) and what documents i need from her or should she just apply for my open work permit through mail, what´s a better and faster approach any one with similar situation?

Take special note,
***Note:
Spouses or common-law partners of work permit holders who have been nominated for permanent residence by a province will be entitled to open work permits for the duration of
the work permit of the provincial nominee principal applicant, irrespective of the skill level of the principal applicant’s occupation. While there is reluctance on the part of CIC and HRSDC/SC to support work permits for lower-skilled workers because their skills profile
would not normally qualify them for permanent immigration to Canada, concerns regarding these persons going out of status and remaining in Canada illegally are mitigated when the
foreign national has been nominated for permanent residence. If a province feels a foreign
national is sufficiently needed in its labour market to nominate that person, then having that job filled is clearly important, irrespective of where in the NOC that particular job is classified.
Since, in the long run, the spouse or common-law partner is going to be a member of the Canadian labour market anyway, allowing them to enter the market and begin work as soon
as possible will hasten the integration process
