Hi, I’m in a similar situation and would appreciate any insights. I have a valid PGWP, but my TRV expired. I had to leave Canada due to a personal emergency before renewing my TRV. I applied for a new TRV from outside Canada, and in the meantime, my PR application, which I filed from within Canada along with my spouse, was approved. My spouse is the primary applicant, and I am the dependent. Since I was outside Canada and couldn’t return without the TRV—which is taking a long time to process—I submitted my passport for PR visa stamping, indicating that I was outside Canada. Today, I received my PR visa and COPR, but my spouse's virtual landing is still stuck at the portal 2 email stage.
I’m wondering if I should return now since I’m employed in Toronto. If my passport and landing documents are held upon arrival, can I continue working with my PGWP and current SIN number, given that I haven't officially landed as a PR yet?
