Can SOWP Holder Work Even if Spouse Left Canada or Laid Off

Yes. You can work in Canada even if your spouse decides to leave Canada. Work permits are valid until the day they expire. You can continue working regardless of where your spouse is, however, you would not be able to get an extension of your work permit unless your spouse gets one. Otherwise you become eligible for your own status in Canada. There are very less chances that it could be questioned on next application why your spouse left and you stayed behind.
