I finished my studies, got my pgwp until 2024 and is working in an NOC-C job with hourly wage of $21.60.
My wife is with me and her work permit is only until Apr 2023 (same as my study permit)

Can I extend my wife’s work permit? When?

She will not be eligible to extend her permit unless you get a NOC A, B or 0 job (new TEER names)

Read the IRCC press release. It is a phased approach and don’t see anything about those on PGWP.

The temporary measure will be implemented in 3 phases to ensure its successful implementation:

  • Phase 1 will enable family members of workers coming to Canada through the high-wage stream of the Temporary Foreign Worker Program or the International Mobility Program to apply for an open work permit .
  • Phase 2 aims to expand the measure to the family members of workers from the low-wage stream of the Temporary Foreign Worker Program, following consultations.
  • Phase 3 will include consultation with agricultural partners and stakeholders to assess operational feasibility for expanding the measure to family members of agricultural workers.
