Ho to extend Open Work Permit

[quijanogreg]

Situation:
Main Applicant >> Wife(Student-PGWP): Will end on Aug 31 2019, Working NOC B
Dependent >> Husband(Open Work Permit): Will end on Aug 31 2019

I understand that these are the following criteria to extend Open Work Permit:
1. Wife must have work under NOC A, B O(Full Time or Part time)
2. Wife must present 3 payslip
3. Must submit the Extension before the end Date

Appreciate your reply in advance. Thanks...

If your wife's PGWP is ending August 31, 2019 and she was granted the full length of her PGWP, then neither of you can extend your work permits at this time. One of you needs to obtain a job offer from an employer along with an approved LMIA and apply for a closed work permit. The other spouse will then qualify for an open work permit.

You posts are confusing. Is your wife currently on a PGWP? If so, when does it expire? According to your original post, the PGWP expires August 2019. Is that correct? Or is it a different date?

To be clear:

My wife Student Visa will expire on Aug 2019, she already applied for PGWP currently on process.

What we know once she got a job under NOC A,B,O(Full Time or Part Time) with 3 payslip, my wife can extend my Open Work Permit before my End Date(Aug 31 2019)) Is this true? Even her work is Part Time?

If your wife has PGWP and a job in NOC 0, A or B with 3 pay slips you can apply for a new SOWP. You aren’t extending your old SOWP.

Thanks. Btw some more questions.

1. I heard from some they just submitted 2 payslips only is that still ok?
2. Can i submit the new application for SOWP 1 day before my old SOWP expire?

1. No it must be 3 pay slips.
2. You should got to the border to flagpole so you can start your new visa when you have the 3 pay slips.

Do you have all the documents including the 3 pay stubs?

 

[quijanogreg]

not yet only until End of Aug, the 3rd payslip most likely we can get it only on 30 Aug.

You can only apply when you have all the documents. I would consider flagpoling.

Yah i will have all the documents ready by 30th Aug, which is 1 day before my OWP expiry. Do you think it will be an Issue in IRCC if i submit my SOWP on 30 Aug 2019?
