Hello Everyone,

I had post-graduate work-permit, which was expired in OCT 2017. I applied to extend work-permit, but got refused and lost status and had to leave job. I have applied again to restore status and work-permit both and it is in process right now.

But in between that I got my Confirmation of PR (COPR).

So, My question is, Can i have any trouble in landing at Canada/US border as currently i have no status in Canada but have applied for restoration.

Is that ok, if I show border officer proof that I have applied for restoration?

If you are flagpoling to land as a PR, the rest of your immigration status is largely irrelevant. Your work permit would have been rendered void as soon as you land anyway.
