Hello everyone, this is my first time here.
I need your advice.
I am currently in the UK, I applied for skilled work permit after my studies(changed from student permit to work permit).
I have been waiting for a decision to be made for a new BRP to issued for 4months now, yet nothing from them.
Now, I got admission to study in Canada, I and my family already have visiting visa to Canada but I would like to apply for a study permit and SOWP for my spouse.
1. My worry is this, how do I convince the VO that I am not an illegal resident in the UK since my previous BRP is expired and I am still awaiting their decision. What document should I upload to convince the VO about this.

2 . Since my son will be 3 in August and I would most likely to submit the application for study permit around June, which visa should I apply for him. Visiting visa or study permit ( note he is yet to be 3 but will be 3 before I resume studies)

Thank you as you guide me on what to do🙏🏽
