If I were you, I would call the help centre since this is an inland application. They can probably give you more accurate answer than anyone on these forums.

You are under "implied status" until a decision is made (approved or denied) on your application for extension

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/visit/extend-stay.asp

Giving them a shout at the CIC helpline won't be a bad idea either.

You are still under "implied status"; you have temporary resident status and can stay until you have the results of your application.

When you put your extension application on 5/25, your initial stay was to end on 6/26. From that point you will enter "implied status" as soon as your initial stay expired (6/26) until you get results of your application for extension.

When your application was returned to you on 8/27 - your initial stay had expired, and you had results of your application (negative). You enter into the grace period for restoration of status (90 days) from end of your initial stay (6/26) until 9/26.

As you had reapplied for extension + restoration of status within the 90-day grace period, you again fall under "implied status"; you can stay until you get results of your reapplication + restoration of status.

/all the best...

hi guys just an update on my subject I sent back my extended stay application in September due to missing 2 little boxes and had to pay for restoring my status my application was received back on September 10th.still no word from immigration regarding my case until yesterday returned home to find a message on the answer machine asking me to call them as it was late there office was closed so now i'm thinking is it bad news and do they call you when its a refusal of your application. anyone who has been in this situation before and who could give me any advice would be very much appreciated thank you for taking the time to read my post.
