Hi,
I am an international student. My visa will expire on Dec 2020 and have to apply for PGWP. After that, I will have a part-time or casual Job as an RPN which is B grade. Is it required that I have to work full time on a skilled job for extending my spouse open work permit? Can I extend my spouse Visa with my Part-time job as an RPN if I won't get any full time till the date of visa expiry?
 
@primaprime - just to clarify the first requirement
"a spouse of a skilled worker in an occupation under the National Occupational Classification (NOC) skill type 0, A or B approved to work in Canada six months or longer "

Does the 6 months on longer apply to the spouse's work permit or to the spouse's current employment contract. If a spouse has more than a year left on their PGWP but is currently on a 3 month job contract would it count? Also, if the job is on the skilled NOC but part time, would it count?
