    Can I Apply for a Tourist Visa While My Spouse Sponsorship H&C Appeal is in Progress?

    She can apply for a TRV but it's pretty much guaranteed to be refused due to the failed sponsorship application, H&C application, and previous refused TRV. The failed sponsorship application and H&C application demonstrate she has an intent to remain in Canada long term.

    Questions about inland sponsorship and open work permit.

    Depends on the timing of the rest. Often it's a good thing to do in case your PR application is returned for any reason since the visitor record then prevents you from falling out of status.

    Work Experience for Express Entry

    1. IMO this period should count. You may want to confirm with an immigration lawyer. 2. I'm not sure I understand this question. Once the PGWP was refused, you would have fallen out of status and not be able to work until restoration and the PGWP was approved.

    Parent visa sponsorship in Quebec

    There is always some chance that IRCC may request updated evidence of financial eligibility during the federal processing stage. It certainly doesn't always happen. But there is some possibility you could be asked for this later on in the process.

    Do I have the right to PRTD, and how do I deal with the fields where I don't have an answer?

    1. No. You would need to apply for a PRTD with H&C considerations. If that is approved, you would then need to travel to Canada and apply for a PR card once you are in Canada. Also, I don't understand your dates. You say you got PR in 2008 but also say you left Canada in 2005. Is one of these...

    buffer days question

    No, wait a few weeks before you submit. 3-4 weeks. With no buffer or a very small buffer, your application is much more likely to be routed to secondary review and then you'll be waiting a lot longer than the extra 3-4 weeks.

    My American Girlfriend wants to come to Canada, we live in border towns and want to keep jobs.

    The OWP allows her to work in Canada. It's not a re-entry permit. Whether she is allowing into Canada each time will still be up to CBSA.
