Your eligibility to extend your visa will depend on where you went to school and where the employment is located. Two years are presently allowed for post education work permits, other than in cases in which the work or study occurs/occurred in the Montreal, Toronto, or Vancouver area, which are limited to one year.

If your spouse has been refused visitor admission twice, it is unlikely that an application for an open work permit would be approved in the absence of significant new information presented to attest to her ties to her home country.

There is no lower or upper limit for wages for HRSDC applications, as long as they are otherwise consistent with the local labour market.
