First Ontario Driver's License close to Temporary resident status expiration.

My current IEC visa expires in October, I am planning to apply for a Visitor Record (that I understand it's not considered a temporary resident status, right?) and would like to get my G1 driver's license before my current status expires. I understand the Ministry of Transport of Ontario requires a valid Temporary Resident status alongside documentation to prove it in order to apply for a driver's license.

Would I be allowed to do that? Is there a minimum requirement of time left in Canada as a temporary resident for one to apply for a driver's license?

And if it is allowed, will the expiration date on my license reflect my current resident status expiration (in October)? Or will it run the standard length of time a first time license runs for?

Thank you.

IEC to visitor record, maintained status?

As the title states, I am on a IEC visa, until October. I am planning to apply for a Visitor Record and was wondering if the processing time kept my legal status in Canada until I have gotten a response from the IRCC.
Say I apply one week before my current status expires, will that maintain my status until I get my visitor's record approved?
