PGWP and Spouse Open Work Permit

[guigh]

My wife will apply for her PGWP in the next few months, but she doesn't have a NOC 0, A or B job. She will look for a NOC B job as soon as she ends her college.

I can only remain in Canada with her if she gets a NOC 0, A or B job.

I currently have an OWP. If I want to stay here while she looks for a job, what are my options? Can I extend my OWP, or can I change it to a Visitor status?

 

[k.h.p.]

You can only exchange your OWP on the basis of her having an NOC 0 A or B job. You can apply to extend as a visitor, but it may be refused.
