Im in the middle of the outland process and my Korean wife is here with me in Canada. Her visitor visa is due in a month and we have sent out for the extension.
We plan on crossing over the US border for a few days and I was wondering if there will be any complications upon returning.

As soon as you leave Canada, her visitor status ends so the request you already submitted for extension will also be considered cancelled.

When you return back to Canada from USA, she will need to re-enter Canada as a visitor again. It shouldn't be a problem for visa-exempt passport holder, and most likely she will just get another 6-months status.

Your wife can stay in Canada while waiting for the new extention application to be processed. Most likely it will be granted so there is no reason for her to leave yet
But if you are going for a visit anyway it should not be a problem. But nothing is certain when crossing the border
