Can I apply for Visitor Visa in restoration period?
What are the chances of getting approval?
Overall Scenario!
I’m currently on a work permit and I’m planning for the extension of my work permit on the base of acknowledgement letter from PNP. But the chance of rejection is more because I don’t have nomination letter. I have job letter and acknowledgement letter.
But if my open work permit is rejected I’ll be in restoration period, will I be eligible to apply for visitor visa during that period of time ??

I was in the exact same situation except with LMIA instead of PNP. Same process. If you have a file number from your PNP application, then you can apply for a new WP with the file number. They will wait for 3 mths to give you a chance to get approval so you will have implied status for that time. If after 3 mths you still don't have a nomination, then they will refuse it and you will be on restoration. This happened to me and when the restoration was up I left Canada and returned as a visitor.
I called CIC today and told them that i have an AOR for my NOMINEE APPLICATION. Can I extend my WP using that ? The answer I got was that they can extend based on Nomination confirmation only. AORs based applications will be rejected.
Of course they won't extend it without nomination. I mean that if you send in an application they won't reject it for 3 mths so you get implied status for 3 mths, so you can keep working for a while longer
