Hi!

I'm working in accordance with a postgraduate Work Permit (open). It will expire in two weeks. As I know generally such types of WP cannot be extended. But I was thinking to apply for WP extension anyways just to get additional 2-3 month to work while being on implied status.

However, in case if my application is considered as incomplete and rejected it will mean that I worked these 2-3 month illegally. Will it affect in future my application for PR if I get ITA. I mean what can be a negative consequences of such a situation?
May I avoid this situation if in any case I will apply for a status restoration within 90 days after my original WP expiration?
Thanks for explanation!

At this point, I think you can just go ahead and do it. I just did the same thing and it came as refused not as rejected (incomplete).
