Given your talk about the TRV I thought you were talking about the new program.
Sorry, no idea about your question. Why not get the TRV first and then figure it out?
TRV for spouse and dependant

This is what I was thinking to do assuming the OWP application is the same for Family Class (outland) spousal PR applicants:
- Spouse applies for TRV
- Spouse enters Canada
- Spouse applies for OWP (can be applied within Canada only)
- Spouse leaves Canada after 2-3 weeks
- Spouse comes back to Canada after the OWP is issued in 3-5 months
1. Maybe.
4. I believe same point applies - do not know if they will process the OWP if the subject has left.
5. What if something happens? (Like what? I don't know. See covid, for example.)
Note that INLAND apps are intended for applicants who are IN Canada. (It's kind of in the name.) Use as intended is recommended. If your spouse doesn't intend to stay, then just apply outland.
Might it work? Yep. Might it not work? Yep.
Curious about those spouses that have made their way over with TRV. I received a email letter from IRCC to reply to the email they sent with the application info, to provide the estimate when the spouse entered Canada on their TRV and to submit photo and current address within 7 days to finalize PR application/for their PR Card. A separate email from LDNImmigration required a reply for virtual landing by providing current address and to update via webform with it too. I'm finding the whole replying IRCC emails to provide info a bit suspect....is this normal?
This was a outland PR family class spouse application initially but my spouse made their way over via family reunification TRV in August.

Normal and the correct way to proceed. They now do this 'virtual' landing procedure as matter of course for applicants in Canada, whether or not the application started as outland or inland. Also why those who arrive in Canada after starting an outland app should update their address with IRCC.
why have you not applied for OWP yet ? i assume you'd have the AOR from the spousal PR application.
correct me if i am wrong , if someone applies for OWP, he/she need not apply for extension of visitor visa and can stay on implied status till the OWP is approved . is it ?
