If it's a PGWP or IEC open work permit, it's non-extendable.

In that case you can apply after her study permit is extended.

If she is continuing her studies, you can apply for extension along with her study permit extension. If she is finishing her studies and applying for a PGWP, she must have a skilled job and 3 payslips for you to qualify for an OWP based on her PGWP. Otherwise, you need to apply to change your status to visitor.

If she has a skilled job and 3 payslips by the time she applies for a PGWP, you can apply with her.

Which is better way to extend spouse open work permit?

#1) Apply individually after spouse got pgwp.
Or apply together if spouse have Noc O, A or B level job and have three pay stubs.

#2) can I apply even spouse pgwp is in-process?

Makes zero sense to wait to apply for the spouse OWP if you already have the necessary documents.

You can apply while waiting for your PGWP but again, makes no sense if you already have the required documents. Just apply together.

Thank you for your information.
I just want to know all possible scenario.
Actually i am going to start my job one week after my orientation. If we both have to apply together then I have to wait for my three pay stubs.
