Hi all,
I’m currently at the end of my PGWP but I applied for an open work permit with the sponsorship application in the beginning of July. I called and confirmed that they haven’t started processing my application yet and I was told that they most likely wouldn’t open my envelope until November. Does that still count as implied status? Could I still work? Do I have to leave the country because my permit expired?
I applied for a visitor visa today as a backup. Would that allow me to at least stay in the country until my PR and OWP are processed?
Thank you so much! I’m so overwhelmed...
