I am looking for a suggestion I have applied for PR of my spouse in April 2023 and right now, she is waiting for her virtual landing Portal 1 email since Oct 26, 2023 (Final Decision). PR Tracker showed a Temporary E COPR Number. Currently my spouse is in Canada, and we have 2 options 1. Apply for Open Work Permit (Estimated 3-4 Months) or 2. Apply for Visitor Visa Extension ( Estimated 3 Months) . Given the current circumstances could you please suggest which direction should we go ahead ? Thank you
Visitor Record or OWP during Virtual Landing wait period

Another option is to do nothing. Especially since her current status is valid for another 3 months. Applying for the OWP at this late stage would be a waste of time and money.
Hey,
I was in a similar situation (status expiring Nov 9th, waiting for ecopr since Sep 21.) I ended up applying for visitor extension, and in additional information, I noted my UCI and situation (that I passed everything and waiting for ecopr). Document got processed and approved in just 9 days! I highly suggest visitor record extension.

Yeah in my case, it was expiring Nov 9th so that's why I applied on Nov 7th. Just wanted to let OP know that it won't take 3 months if you state you are waiting for your ecopr.
