Changing to visitor status while waiting for pgwp

[Bsr555]

My fiance's study permit expires at the end of march. We are waiting for her post graduate work permit, the application should go through in a day or two, and should be processed 86 days later, or just after the study permit expires.

If we apply to change her status to visitor 30 days before the end of march, is it possible the pgwp could be granted and then overridden by visitor status? Losing pgwp days after it's approved?

I don't know how it works.

If the pgwp was rejected she would need visitor status to apply for permanent residency spousal sponsorship depending on how we approach it, unless we apply for inland spousal sponsorship during restoration period... Correct?

It's very confusing and any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Look into 'implied status'.

I'm still a bit confused.

What happens?

Scenario 1:
Pgwp approved, change of status to visitor approved afterwards, what is her status?

Scenario 2:
Pgwp refused, visitor status refused, does she still have 90 days to apply for permanent residency?

I'll look into it more but a clarification would help.

I did not realize that she was applying for 2 different statuses when I replied earlier.

Why is she applying for 2 different statuses? Because it comes off to me as dual intent which could harm her application and a possibly reason for rejection for her PGWP. I would have applied for PGWP and waited for a decision before applying for visitor status but I'm not sure what's going to happen to both applications and I cant help you here

She isn't, i was looking for the best way to apply for permanent residency if her pgwp was rejected.

Ok no dual intent.

I think the pgwp will go through, just wanted to be ready for permanent residency in case something goes wrong, implied status is fine.
