Whats your current immigration status
Are you in Canada right now
Have you already filled up forms and applied for PR
 
My current status is visitor, accompaning my husband, the student. We arrived to Canada en january 6, 2011. Only we applied for extension of our family status and for my work permit, no yet for PR

Because you are a visitor you wont get a job, you have to apply for work permit.
The only way you can get permanent resident is through http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/index.asp
Unfortunately you cant get in soon you gotta wait the line
 
If your husband has a study visa, as his wife you should be able to get an OWP, valid for the duration of the study visa.

Neither of you sound like you are eligible for PR status but without further information, I cannot say for sure.

Getting PR, is a very, very long process (think between 2 and 10 years, depending on your circumstances)

Under what "stream" are you planning to apply for permanent residency? You can't apply for PR just because you have an OWP; you must qualify under one of the following:
