My employee arrived in Canada on a family support work permit. She applied for her 15-month-old daughter's visit visa(her lawyer didn't update her status change initially) through a lawyer, but it was rejected. Mother is in Canada while her daughter is in back home and she is a single mother with legal guardianship. Can she reapply as a representative for her daughter's visit visa?

Yes. Why was TRV refused? So she has full custody of child? Legal guardianship may not mean full custody.

Reason" not satisfied that applicant will leave Canada at the end of her stay"
Did employee order GCMS notes to see officer’s notes to know how to address the refusal? Should do that because that is a generic reason but means that nothing was shown that child will return to home country. Reason for refusal must be addressed.

Would also include proof that she has the extra funds to support the child and the ability to pay for childcare.

You never said there was a PR application underway. You just said mother on closed work permit. That would explain the TRV refusal because child is not returning to home country. Mother can try again with pay stubs, job letter, funds etc. but if there is a PR application underway then may have to wait for approval.

My apology/!I thought PR is different path then visit visa. She got her pay stub, funds statement, letter from the employer and supporting letter from Member parliament. She wants to apply for visit visa because not sure how long PR will take?

Does she need to stay in Canada for certain period before she get PR. She likes to go back to her country because her parents are very old to take care of her daughter. that's the reason she wants to apply for visit visa. She created a webform to inquire about the status of her PR application 3 days ago but still waiting for the response.

You can check IRCC processing times to give you a sense of PR processing times. When did she apply because no sense in raising a webform if within normal processing times. Response can take 30 days or more.
