Hi guys! My wife got her SOWP in November 2023 through flagpoling and is valid until 2026. I applied for our Visitor Visa (counterfoil - January 2024) under myCIC. I received mine (counterfoil) but my wife received a Visitor Record until 2026 (same end date of her SOWP).

It says on the Visitor Record that "Unless authorized, prohibited from engaging in employment in Canada" <-- Question now is, does this override the SOWP permit that was issued first in November 2023? Can she still be working since she had already a work permit issued to her initially?

Any insight is much appreciated! TIA
