Hi,
I've applied for both : work permit extension and visitor status.
I'm pregnant and as I'm really not sure of my open work permit extension approval,because my husband did not receive his LMO still and I also applied for visitor status.
1) Is it good to stay back as implied status of visitor if my work permit gets rejected or should i go back to my hometown ?
2) Can i wait until I know my visitor status ??
Please reply !!
As per my understanding, you have applied for extension of open wp along with your husband's wp but havent received LMO yet. You have continued working in your job.
In this case, you are already in implied status until decision on your extension of wp comes. If it is positive your wp will be extended. Until that you can continue working. If its negative, you have to stop working and applied for restoration as a visitor.
But now as you have parallel applied for visitor status, I think as soon as it comes you have to leave job.

Imwhoever,
Yes thank you so much . I'll quit my job as soon as my receive my workpermit decision.
Since ,I've applied parallely to visitor status, I need not apply for restoration when my workpermit fails right ?
Do I need to take any action for restoration if my workpermit is refused ?
So am I good to still live in canada , because my visitor is in implied status ?
Please reply
No, because you have already applied for visitor status. even if your wp decision come out negative, they will give you some time (mostly 60 days) to apply for restoration.
