Spouse open Work permit extension refused-applied for Restroration in visitor visa,

[garggg]

Hi guys, I applied for SOWP extension on 1 april (as my work pemrit was to expire on 30th april), my wife's study permit expired on 6 august and was on PGWP applied status since 22 may and my extension file got opened on 2 october and was refused on the grounds that she no longer is a full time student and i was asked to restore my status.
I applied for restoration of status under visitor visa on 3 october as she still did not get her PGWP.
On 7 oct she recieved her PGWP approval.


What should we do now?
should we apply for my work permit file again with her PGWP before we get any answer on the restoration file. or go to the border and get the work permit.
Or should we wait for visitor visa results before doing anything?

You can't go to the border while out of status. So flagpoling is not an option.

I think waiting for restoration is the best option. However wait for others to comment.
