Livin caregiver sending off application Oct 2012 - Feb.2013?

Hi,
This is my first time on this forum. I've been reading through the past threads. I will be completing my 24months as a live-in-caregiver this July and need all the help and advice anyone who's done it before can offer.
My CWP expires in May. I gathered from the CIC website that i can apply for an extension. I also read there that i can apply for an OWP at the same time that i apply for PR. I'm not too cetain about the right order of things and really need to get it right. I'm hoping to sponsor my child to come over in future.
Here are my questions:
1)If i apply for extended stay, can i still apply for an OWP?
2)I'm told that an extension of stay is usually for a year only, so what happens to me since the usual waiting time for PR is anywhere between 12-36months?
3) Can i send in my application for extended stay now or do i wait, since the CIC website advices to apply atleast 30days before the expiration of my work permit.
Please, if there's any other thing i need to know,kindly advice. I dont know where to start and don't want to make any mistakes.
Thank you so much for your help.

I think if you extend your visa and apply on line, usually takes one month then you will received it. But owp at least need to wait 3 months to get it. Your new visa may give you one more year but your owp will go with your passport expire date.
Thank you for your help job_seeker.
My initial contract was for 3 years but i was given a WP for only 2 years. Was hoping to apply for an extension based on that. Or should i be looking to request that my employer renew the contract to be extended to 2 years? What's your take on that?.
I would prefer a 2 year extension to just a year's.

Request for a new contract (salaries may have gone up), and a letter. Two years would be good. Will give you peace of mind as to your SIN and health card.

I am sorry if I posted in the wrong thread but I was having a hard time looking for the correct thread to post my question.
My sister is still waiitng for the result of her LMO application but I just want to know in advance about the things that I need to do or the requirements that I need to gather.
If I apply as a live-in caregiver, am i required to take the IELTS or the speak test will suffice? And can someone please explain about the speak test process?
Thank you so much.
