She doesn't work for any particular person or company, her job doesn't require work permit as far as I can tell, she holds website for individuals even outside canada and yes she's been filing tax even while out of status and she haven't had any issues so far with that.
Out of status inland application PLEASE HELP!

We also have very good reasons for small wedding.
Both families are not in canada, for financial reasons and most importantly it's just what we are comfortable with at the moment, we are both introverted and just prefer small gatherings over large one, is it a requirement ti have a big wedding? I'm not sure if that'll mess up our application
But, if she builds websites for people IN CANADA as well, she would then be working without authorization.
NO! It's not a requirement, but it just makes it a bit harder to convince that total stranger that gets your application package and has to believe the story that you're telling. It's crazy, but you are often times at the mercy of the officer that's working on your application package.
Just detail everything in the personal narrative that she will write and include with the package.
Thanks for this heads-up, I'll ask her to immediately stop taking jobs in canada, does she have to return the monies she's made while jobs here in canada?
We ll make sure to include the details as to why a small wedding was necessary for us and hopefully it goes well.
Thank you so much, I hope you don't mind me reaching out to you again if there's anything we don't understand
No, she doesn't need to do that. Doing that wouldn't solve the issue anyway. However you want to consider being 100% honest in the application about working illegally. Any work she did for anyone in Canada was illegal work / work without authorization.
Thank you, we ll make sure to include that in the application as well.
Have there been people in our situation that gets approved? We are just a bit worried
Sure, people are approved. You want to show strong evidence the relationship is genuine. That should be your focus. That's what's really important in this situation.
Also good to stop an illegal work now. Ideally it would have never happened but too late for that now.
Absolutely! The only thing worse than working without authorization, is not disclosing it if asked. I don't recall if there are any questions regarding this (there has to be at least one), so as long as she is honest about it, it will not impact her application. Misrepresentation, on the other hand...could be devastating to the application.
Prior to 2017 there was Conditional PR (Condition: 51). This required couples that were together for less than 2 years when applying to remain cohabiting for 2 years after becoming a PR if sponsored by their spouse/partner. It's hard to say if the screening process of applications now is easier, but it may have changed the way applications are reviewed.

Thank you so much, cohabitation is not an issue for us, we also plan on moving to a bigger space soon.
Thank you so much for your help!
Yes, understood but I was merely citing the possible difference in how applications are screened for a MOC now. With the old Condition: 51, a sponsor who fraudulently sponsored their spouse/partner (a marriage of convenience) would probably not make the 2 year commitment to live together. Now, with that requirement gone, maybe the officer does have to be even more convinced that the marriage is genuine. Maybe?
Oh I see what you mean, yeah we ll male sure to get all our proofs and detailed letters explaining our situation.
I have a few questions for later but I'm at work at the moment, I will get back to you, thank you
