- Your wife's work permit remains valid.
- You can remain in Canada but cannot work.
- If you want to change employers, you need to secure a new job offer from an employer in Canada, that employer needs to obtain an approved LMIA (unless the job is LMIA exempt), and then you need to apply for a new closed work permit.
- Your options for immigrating are the same as they were before. You need to meet the requirements of one of Canada's economic immigration programs such as EE, CEC, PNP.
