Being let in while your examination is still open comes with a short leash. You must show up at the exact time and place set for the rest of your examination or your admissibility hearing, you cannot work, you cannot attend school, and you must report to a port of entry if you decide to leave. Emergency and quarantine orders bind you as well. Entering this way makes you neither a temporary resident nor a permanent resident.
(1)An officer must impose the following conditions on every person authorized to enter Canada under section 23 of the Act: (a)to report in person at the time and place specified for the completion of the examination or the admissibility hearing; (b)to not engage in any work in Canada; (c)to not attend any educational institution in Canada; (d)to report in person to an officer at a port of entry if the person withdraws their application to enter Canada; and (e)to comply with all requirements imposed on them by an order or regulation made under the Emergencies Act or the Quarantine Act.
(2)A foreign national who is authorized to enter Canada under section 23 of the Act does not, by reason only of that authorization, become a temporary resident or a permanent resident.
