Hello - you dont have to cross border in order to change the visa status. Like you said, since your job comes under skill level B, your wife is eligible for OWP - you can apply online (using my CIC account) or by mail - i recommend applying by mail. although it take longer, you can attach more supporting documents along with the application. Make sure to attach your employment contract (it should your job responsibilities, so that CIC can evaluate your skill level whether A or B or so on !!)
You can find required documentation at http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/work.asp
