Hi,

I am on temporary work permit (TWP) in Canada and working as a researcher at the university. My TWP expired on Jan 03, 2013 and applied online for an extension for the same on Nov 07, 2012. It seems that I have to wait another 30 days to get my work permit. My wife is dependent on me. Right now myself and my wife are on implied status.

I have to travel to my home country for an emergency and I may or may not come back. But I will make a decision with in a month or two. Can my wife stay in Canada without me during implied status? However, she will move back to my home country once we make a final decision.


Kindly give me advice. Thank you for the responses.
