I sent my PR inland application in June 2015 and after 8 months got AOR. Thank God.
My visa is going to expire in July 2016 and I would like to extend it I asked one consultant here as to if I can apply for OWP and they said No I should just apply for extending my TRV.
And wait for 25 months until I get my PR. Which looks to me is sucha long time without any status like I won't have my medicare card or be able to work if I plan in future. I'm confused that why did they say I should not apply for OWP the reason they gave is that by just having temporary resident status they will know you are not trying to steal citizens job just chill for 24 months??
Can please someone suggest me if I should apply for OWP and visa extension or both?
When you say "visitor visa" do you actually mean your travel visa or you mean 6-months duration of visitor status? If you maintained visitor status, you can apply for open work permit any time, no need to wait.
