Urgent Advice Needed: Tricky situation

Hi everyone,

Need some guidance on the best next steps for our situation.

My wife is the primary applicant under Canadian Experience Class. We got ITA in Dec 2025, submitted our PR application, and received AOR on Feb 8, 2026. Biometrics + medicals were completed on April 16.

Our current work permits expire on June 15, 2026.

My wife recently lost her job, but from my understanding she is still eligible to apply for a Bridging Open Work Permit since our PR application is already in process.
The confusing part is my situation as the spouse. With all the newer spouse work permit / TEER-related rules, we’re unsure what the smartest approach is now.

What would you recommend as the best next steps here?

We’re mainly trying to avoid losing status or making the wrong move this close to expiry. Any recent experiences or advice would really help. Thanks!
