Hold on. I just realised I might have made a mistake. You had an IEC, right? This is a one time visa and thus, you can't extend it but I'm not sure if it gives you implied status if you sent in an application for visit or work permits before your IEC expired. I also don't think it's necessary for you to apply for restoration. @canuck_in_uk Can you please enlighten us? Thanks.

was it on imm0008 where you attached the same explanation? so to make it clear, im attaching the explanation on the restoration and owp and spousal sponsorship right?
hi again venus. what sort of supporting documents did you include on your restoration? my partner has been supporting. anyway, can he write a letter stating that he will continue to financially provide for the both of us together with pay stubs from work and our joint bank account statement? and we will include our marriage certificate too. do you think this will work?
Yes, imm0008 for the Spousal Sponsorship and imm5710 for OWP + Restoration.
I don't think that's necessary. However, if you can see on the checklist for the OWP, you are required to include your marriage certificate. When I applied, I only included the documents that were on the checklist.
okay cool. im not sure how much money i should put in there tho. ahahha. ill just ask my partner to write a letter of support. cant hurt hey?
and for the question my expenses will be paid by : other -> spouse / is this the right way to answer it?
No point in applying for Restoration. You currently have valid Implied Status because you submitted a visitor extension prior to your IEC permit expiring.
As long as the visitor extension is not refused, your OWP should be issued as normal. If the visitor extension is refused, the OWP app will also be refused and then you will be out of status. That us when you would need to look at Restoration.
I'm trying to find the expenses you are talking about. Can you please check the form and let me know which one it is? Because I don't have that part in my forms. Also, I want to make sure that you know you have to pay $255 for OWP + another $200 for the Restoration.
i mean on the quesitons on personal details for the restoration. there is a specific question ( fund available for staying and who will pay for expenses while staying in canada )
Huh, I never had that question on mine. OWP + Restoration is in one form, imm5710. There's no other form for the restoration.

Hi everyone
Just got my work permit, it's said "Unless authorized, must not attend any educational institution or take any academic, professional or vocational training course", is any one know if I be able to take some course under 10 day like cooking, make up or massage course? Thanks

But what if they refuse and the OWP decision is made shortly after, that means that there’s not enough time to apply for restoration, right? I read on another thread that someone’s OWP was denied because of out of status and now has to wait until AIP...
If the visitor extension is refused, you will be out of status and have 90 days from the date of refusal to apply for Restoration. The OWP would be refused because of the lack of status. You could apply for Restoration directly with the OWP or apply for Restoration as a visitor and then apply for the OWP once visitor status has been restored.
So if my OWP is refused, because of lack of status, I can restore my status and reapply for a new OWP?
