Spouse open work permit, Implied status.

[Bear60]

Hi guys, difficult question here.

I will apply before my work permit expire to spouse open work permit, (my girlfriend will study in a public college) but my passport will expire in 7 months...I know if I apply before my work permit expires I'll be in implied status and I would keep working. But what when my passport expire? I would get a new one and apply to spouse open work permit again but I would lose my worker status?

Thanks in advance
