Hi

i am currently working in Canada as PGWP and my work permit will be expired in 2 months , i already have PR application in process and currently in background check for couple months waiting for final decision, so i am thinking about the extend work permit and apply for Bridge open work permit BOWP till i get my PR card , but due to some issue with my workplace i decided to resign with my current employee .
as far as i search for BOWP extension there was no employment required before but with all new changes and rules i am really worry now to apply for BOWP if a getting unemployed , so do i still need valid and continues employment for BOWP , the new rules from IRCC nowhere mentions about the BOWP and just said open work permit but BOWP is still kind of OWP or maybe i am wrong

can someone advise and share your experience , i have lot of stress these days and because my work permit is expired in 2 months no one give me job despite i have good experience and educated in IT

BOWP doesn't require a job or even employment so apply for BOWP to keep status.
