Outland spousal Application in progress to Visit visa to Open work permit

[AyodejiA]

Hello guys,

I am presently in Canada on a visit visa for about 2 months now. My wife is a PR and I still have my Outland PR sponsorship application pending (last update was Passed Medicals on April 15).

I am planning on flagpoling with my wife (to the border) to obtain a work permit. Am I eligible for the work permit?

Anyone with flagpoling experience? And what did you guys think?

Thank you!
