Topic: OHIP for family of TFW

blueleafy

Hi,

I'm a temporary foreign worker with OHIP coverage. Now, my family is coming soon to join me in Canada under the visitor status, with the assumption to get a visitor record after about 5 months. How can I get them coverage under OHIP?

After calling to the ServiceOntario hotline, I was told that they have to be "dependents" under work permit. I do remember filling out the form for the IRCC when applying for the Work Permit, but they are not listed on the actual physical work permit. Does that mean that they are not eligible for coverage?

Thank you
