Hi everyone,
I applied for inland spousal sponsorship on November 7, 2023. I also applied for my visitor record on November 14, 2023, as my Visitor visa expires on December 14, 2023.
I received AOR today - January 3, 2024. Now I am about to apply for my Open Work Permit where in the questionnaire I was supposed to answer "When does your status in Canada expire?". Suppose I give December 14, 2023. I have to restore my status by paying $229. I am unsure if I have to do that as I already have applied for a visitor record which is in progress and am currently in a "maintained status". What date should I give and does it matter?

When did u applied for the visitor record? Normally it takes 1 month or less. Mybe u can wait for your extension then apply for the work permit
I am not sure why they haven't processed the visitor record yet. In the OWP application, looks like they only ask for the family member's proof of status - meaning the spouse. I also understand that I can't give a random future date on the date of expiry. I will better call IRCC/wait for my visitor record extension.
I guess you are fine, in their website they updated their explanation https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/family-sponsorship/spouse-partner-children/spouse-common-law-partner-canada-open-work-permit.html

Hi everyone!
Since we are using a lawyer for our application, when I tried to use the tracker it has the lawyers email there. Is there a way that we can use the tracker without having to keep bugging the laywer?
Thanks!
