Hi All,
Me and my wife have been living in Vancouver for last 4 years with me on a work permit and my wife on a study permit,our permits expire on Nov 30,2019.Now my wife will be done with her master's degree in the next 3 months and will be a graduate but she hasn't found a job yet,my question is what are the options to extend my open work permit ,I was told that in order to extend,wife needs a job wherein she can provide at atleast 2 pay slips which I have to include in my OWP extension,my question is if there are any other options to extend my OWP,for example I have a good job as technical support analyst,can I extend the OWP with the help of my company for example by providing an LMIA?


P.S I know I can apply for PR but I don't want to at this time.
