Hello,
I won't be surprised if this inquiry was captured in an earlier post, however would greatly appreciate some confirmation or advise with mine.
Spouse completed undergraduate studies, got a PGWP and prior to the expiry of the PGWP submitted a FC Inland spousal sponsorship accompanied with a work permit extension application. While waiting for a decision for both AIP and a new OWP, she has continued to work under implied status with the same employer until a decision was rendered. After a year or so, we received the OWP with comments 'Pending FC Approval' but still no word on the AIP - reading through this post it seems as though the OWP could now be received before the AIP.
Few questions:
1) Given the type of work permit she was on, implied status would have been relevant during that time, correct?
2) With the 'Pending FC APR' I'm assuming that if AIP is denied then this automatically invalidates the OWP?
3) Not sure if this question is relevant for this forum, however assuming that the AIP gets approved in the next few weeks or month; Could the implied status combined with the new OWP status be used to apply for the Ontario provinces OHIP at the time that AIP is received? Or does the 153 days start from the date that AIP is approved?
Thanks.
