A question my friend is still working no status but it is within the 90 days restoration period. She is still working as she was advised that she could continue working as her status was in implied mode(when she put in her application of permanant residancy) Originally she put in a application for extending work visa but her labour market opinion came back negative. So she was advised that she could still continue working if her status was still in the implied status while she put in her application for permanant residancy.
So she sent her permanant residancy application away, and then one week later was advised that her original application to extend work visa was denied as the labour market opinion. But her permanant residancy application was sent before she was advised her status had run out. So therefore shouldnt it really be in implied mode?

She is planning on debating this as it wasnt fair being told one thing from the call center.
What penalties can she face.????She has been involved in a common law with a canadian for the past yr and a half.
She is now planning on leaving Canada before the 90 days restoration period...Will she ever be able to work in canada again??
will she be fined money ?? sent to jail???? whats the penalties. she has a good case to go on though.

She is working illegally if she didn't apply for a new work permit, I assume that she didn't since the LMO was refused. Just because she applied for PR doesn't give her any benefits of implied status. If she is caught she can be removed from Canada, either deportation, exclusion or departure order. She actually has no case if she is caught.
