Hello,
I am applying for a closed work permit LMIA-Exempt from the United States with United States citizenship.
We homeschool our children so they appear to not need a study permit.
My wife will not work. All I can find is information about her applying for an open work permit. What do we need to do for her? Just show up to the Point of Entry, or is there something else we need to do to make sure she can enter the country for the duration of my work permit?

Thank you for any help you can provide.

She should apply for an OWP even if she doesn't want to work. Anything else will be a PITA.
