Hi I guess it was posted here before but just a clarification from those who are in same position. Currently my wife (American citizen) is staying with me temporarily because of coavaid. We have filed Outland spousal immigration and have heard today that it is in process . She has stayed more than 6 months and we have applied for extensions (before the 6 months limit). She is working here (working from home for a us company).Currently we are planning to fly back to USA to see her parents and check on her apartment but we are scared that she would be stopped while crossing the border . My question is- can we go to USA , what will happen to extension once you leave Canada ? Also when we re-enter will out spousal immigration application will be an issue? Please advice .

She will lose implied status once she leaves so you will need to withdraw the extension. Nobody can guarantee that your spouse will be allowed to reenter Canada.
