**Urgent**

I am a PR holder. My wife arrived in Canada on 2nd July 2024. I applied for her PR again on December 9th, 2024, and got AOR already. Long story short when I applied earlier the file was incomplete so it was Returned. I believe she was valid to stay for 6 months as per visitor visa. Her visa expires on 7th July, 2034.
I was going to apply for her OWP but I am unsure if that would be valid. I was under the wrong impression that she would be under-maintained status after applying for PR. Shall I apply for visa restoration first?

Also, can I apply for a work permit alongwith restoration for a visitor visa?

No implied status from PR application only from OWP. Yes she should restore her status. She needs to have status to apply for an OWP.

She is the PA. I filled up the form but was stuck with a few questions and I can't find the answer. I intend to apply for a work permit as soon as I get the approval for restoration. What do I put in
Details of visit; How long do you plan to stay?
Also For Funds. I have been supporting her ever since she came here. My paystubs and Bank statements are enough? I have about 2500$ of savings I can include that. Will that be enough for 6 months if I plan to extend that long?
I was really stupid think that she was going to be on implied status now she is out of status and I fear separation from my wife. Her PR is Inland I really hope that comes into consideration. We got the AOR too
