Before her last work permit expired, did you mother apply to change her status to visitor? If she did not change her status to visitor before her last work permit expired, then it is not possible for her to get the work permit in Canada. She must leave Canada and return to the Philippines and apply from there.

NO,BECAUSE SHE WAITED THE REPLIES OF THE IMMIGRATION ABOUT HER STATUS ,IS IT TOO LATE?IF SHE APPLY A VISITOR VISA RIGHT NOW?WHILE HER EMPLOYER APPLY AN LMO FOR HER BECAUSE ACCORDING TO HER EMPLOYER THE IMMIGRATION says they need to APPLY ANOTHER NEW LMO FOR HER,is it too late if she change her status into visitor right now?

If your mother has been without a valid work permit for six months, it's too late to fix the situation in Canada. She will need to return home and apply from there.

OH ,so sad my mom says she suppose to pay her restoration penalty but her employer says wait for the answer of the immigration first even shes willing to pay...and the processing in the phillippines is 8 mos.onwards...

thanks scylla

Restoration only works if your mother is still within 90 days of her work permit expiring. So I don't see how restoration will work for your mother and I believe her only choice is to return home.

Sadly she is in Canada illegally , When she leaves the country she will most likely not be admitted back.
