    Spouse work permit flagpole?

    As you have proof it was delivered and therefore IRCC lost it, she should NOT have to apply for Restoration. Go to the closest MP and have them contact IRCC. She should be able to submit a replacement app that should be expedited.

    ...as possible. I'm sure there is an appeal process somewhere but it would generally take quite a while longer than a new application. Of course each case is different. When is your PGWP expiring? If you re-apply and get AOR before that expires, you would be able to get a Bridging Open Work Permit.

    Questions regarding job offer and bridge visa

    I'm assuming you hold a PGWP right now. Is that correct? Assuming so: 1. Shouldn't be an issue as long as you're able to get a year of full time work experience in NOC A, B or 0. You can use your new / most recent NOC. 2. I don't see why that would be an issue. As long as you are an employee...
