I am just curious. we're sending our application this November. I am a legal resident here in USA. My extended visa will be expiring next September 2017 and my US permanent resident visa application is still pending for the last 17months now. If my Canadian spouse sponsors me, will it affect my canadian sponsorship application if I have a pending visa application here in the US?
No, it will not have any effect on a sponsorship app.

Based on the documents you submitted, I am not satisfied that your sponsor intends to reside in Canada once you obtain your status as a permanent resident.
He was already approved as a sponsor and my file was already transferred to the Visa Office here in Manila. We are both in Manila and he has been living here for 4 yrs already.
What did he submit with the app? He can show plane tickets, letters from family/friends, proof of looking for a job/house in Canada, proof he's moving his life to Canada (shipping stuff, transferring money etc.).

Will a student visa be a good option.
Bearing in mind that my PR card has expired and I will meet RO only in 2018.
She will need to declare that her PR husband is living in Canada. This will lower the chance of being approved for a study permit, as it shows stronger ties to Canada than to her home country.
She may be approved but you should also be prepared to be apart for the next 2 years if she is refused.
