I got an update yesterday and pre arrival email so I am assuming they are still working.
VO/VAC don`t make this work (work with file)! this is done at the embassy in a special department. and VAC is only a courier service, there was a question about it (although perhaps he also mixed up these concepts)

Hi, I’m on an IEC open world permit and so close to sending off my pr application for commen law sponsorship. I have just downloaded the open work permit application to be sent on paper. It advises I need to extend my health insurance as I am a participant of the IEC. Just want to confirm I do need the insurance as I’m not applying for another IEC it’s the open work permit for family sponsorship, also I will continue to work on implied status and I do receive benefit from my employer. There is another document it requested from my employer, either LMIA or something to prove my job is exempt. After reading a lot on the cic website it seems I may not need either of theses, is anyone able to confirm?

I think you can tick both, as they both apply to her, or tick the country she currently lives. Then you write the name of the country

My spousal PR application has taken a long time. My husband received sponsorship approval letter so I was hopeful to see it complete by this Spring, but then Corona came.

Late in the Summer my work permit will expire, and I'm worried CIC is too slow to complete my case before then. I really don't want to lose my job - is there any way extend my permit until the PR application is complete?

I have a question bugging my mind. I know there are many here who are experienced and can help

My Story:
I am a Canadian PR and I reconnected with my old friend who lives back home. We started our relationship in January & decided in February 2020 to get married in June. I was to travel to spend time with him in April, have our pre-wedding ceremony and go back home in June for the final wedding ceremony. Because of Covid 19, plans started to change. I am worried now because it looks as if the airlines may not likely come into full operation for a long while and we don't know when all of these will be over or back to near-normal.
1. I am thinking of flying home just once (when airlines are flying) and having the 2 ceremonies in one trip to reduce my exposure to the virus. I am however worried that when i want to apply for spousal visa for him, i wont have evidence showing I have visited or seen him more than once. (I haven't been back home since i left couple of years ago and we weren't dating then).
Has anyone been in this dilemma or am i just overthinking things? I sure will have evidence of our call logs, video & audio, correspondences etc but not a boarding pass/ticket showing i have visited him twice. Is this going to be a deal breaker

Sorry for the long post.

Since my husband has been out of status the person that is helping is told us to also make an explanation letter on why he didn't apply to be back in status

My husband actually did apply to stay in Canada and the person at the time that was helping him get back in status told us just to book a flight back back and that's how we get back in status

Fast forward to now all we had to do was apply go online for that how do I Write in explanation about that

Visitor status would be dates printed on her visitor record if she has one, or stamp (entry to date she is supposed to leave) if her passport was stamped, or from when she entered Canada to 6 months if her passport was not stamped
Thanks for the answer and sorry for the late reply. When we input the date, because it's in the past, the document won't validate. What would be the workaround for this?

If anyone could answer this, I'd appreciate it.

Wife's currently here on implied status visitor extension. I was suggested to input her original Visitor Record end date on Generic App form - Personal Details - section 10, but it's not letting me validate the form because of the end date being in the past. Not sure what the workaround would be for this.
