My pgwp and TRV are expiring on end of Jan 2017. I applied for visitor extension last week.
I am awaiting ITA soon, maybe in Jan/Feb (460 points)
If I dont get a reply for an extension before my valid status expires that is Jan end, can I live here under implied as visitor extension will be still under process, or I have to go back?
Also if I receive the extension, do I have to do anything like make an exit and come back (maybe USA as its closest) or I can just live without worrying about the exit and re-entry.
If I get an ITA maybe in Feb/March, I will be either under implied or under visitors extension, in any case can I do my medicals for PR?
Also if the ITA was received under implied/visitors extension status, when I submit docs for PR can I apply for work permit aswell or I have to wait out for PR on visitors?
Any advise will be greatly appreciated folks.

YES

NO, YOU CAN JUST LIVE HERE

If I get an ITA maybe in Feb/March, I will be either under implied or under visitors extension, in any case can I do my medicals for PR?
YES, YOU CAN DO MEDICALS IRRESPECTIVE OF YOUR STATUS

Also if the ITA was received under implied/visitors extension status, when I submit docs for PR can I apply for work permit aswell or I have to wait out for PR on visitors?
NO, YOU HAVE TO WAIT. UNLESS YOU GET AN ITA BEFORE YOUR WP EXPIRES YOU CANNOT APPLY FOR A BOWP

Any advise will be greatly appreciated folks.

Thanks.

When I will apply for PR at that time can I apply for new/fresh work permit? not the bowp.
or is there any other option that I dont know of while on visitors and PR in process.

Nope, espressentry is correct.
