No, but that’s irrelevant. I have already applied for a new work permit under the current policy that allows to apply without AOR as long as the current permit expire in two weeks or less. The question is whether it makes sense to apply for a visitor record on top of maintained status?

Hello, I have applied for a new work permit under the OWP Spousal PR sponsorship policy and will be on maintained status shortly. Currently still on an active work permit but it's about to expire. Does it make sense to also apply for a visitor status/record before my work permit expires, in...

Hello, I'm planning to submit my PR application (common-law, inland) just shortly before my current PGWP will expire next month. The plan is to then immediately apply for an open work permit after submitting the PR application, so I can maintain status as a worker. According to...

Thank you both for your input! The answer I received this morning from a consultant aligns with the link you posted, Ponga! ;) We will be including their information on IMM 5406 for completeness sake, and elaborating briefly on it in an LoE. Better to have it than not.

Thanks for your replies so far. I'm currently still on the PGWP but planning to apply for an OWP once AOR is received. It has been over a year since the cessation of my unauthorized study while on PGWP. In which ways would you expect this whole situation to affect my OWP eligibility while PR...

Thank you for your reply Kananaskis. Could this affect my eligibility for an open work permit while the PR application is being processed?

Hello, When reviewing my personal timeline, I realized that I may have studied without authorization while on PGWP. I took a part-time course that delayed beyond the six months that are authorized while on PGWP but due to its part-time nature, I believed I was authorized to continue the...
