is it the same processing time if someone applied for closed wp after pgwp expired (restoration)?Link for employer compliance https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...rtners-service-providers/employer-portal.html
2. Once you will receive close permit, and your job is NOC B you can apply spousal based open permit. (or you can send parallel file of your wife as well with yours)
3. Processing times are same for open closed and extension of WP.
Hopefully this will help.
