My husband appiled for SINP, my open work permit is expiring Mar 30, 2018. If he gets SINP approval, how can I extend my stay.( I have already applied for a visitor status).
Seems to be in trouble, please help..

If your husband approved for SINP as skilled worker (NOC O, A, B) you will get open work permit as a dependent for 2-years.
Then your only option is to change your status to visitor but that's only temporarily and will have to leave once 6 months is up . Unless you want to apply for a study permit and attend school while your PR is processing but it will be costly as you'll have to pay international school fees.
Thank you very much for your reply. Somebody told me that once my husband gets SINP, I can extend my stay as a Worker. Is that true?
Only your husband as the principal applicant can extend his work permit. As his dependent, if his job is in NOC 0,A or B then you can apply for a open work permit. But since his NOC is C, then you are not eligible for a open work permit.
How did you get your first open work permit?
He came here as a student, and after his arrival, he applied for my open work permit.
Then your only option is to apply for a study permit if you want to stay long term.
@ReshmiNithin as @Wonderland_1010 said only option is study permit to stay longer period..Visitor visa option not possible
