Yes asking my Lawyer was the first i did, and he said i can not work, after i checked with the school responsible for internationals students, she did have an answer right away, but she came to me saying the same thing that i can not work till one of status is approved, after that i reach for the IRCC and again same answer

On maintained status, you cannot work, until your PGWP application is approved. To be eligible to work, you should have waited until you received the extension results.
