PPR
.. thanks for all the support from this group.. (AOR - 2 NOV : PPR 15 April)
Need some help from experts here-
My Visa and work permit expired on 1 April 2016. Received extended work permits already but before we could apply for extension of visa we got PPR yesterday. . In the email from CIC they have mentioned that applicants “ currently in Canada with
valid temporary residence visa(s), should submit their passports”. Although we have received extended work permits, our visas that are stamped on the passports reflect that they are expired. I am not sure if CIC will view this as illegal stay in the country beyond the validity of visas.
Should we send the passport responding to PR PPR or should we first apply for extension of visas ? How long does visa extension usually takes ? Thanks for the help again!

I think you can submit. Because you have valid work permit and also if your work permit expire you are still in legal status for 90 days to apply for restoration. CIC can check that you have valid status but you got approved PR application before you can apply for Visa on your passport. But conform with CIC agent before final decision.
