Hello,

My PGWP expires on March 9th. I have my acknowledgement of receipt for my express entry/PR application. I have also applied for my BOWP.

I have a trip booked from February 17th to 26th. I will return to Canada on February 26th.

As I have already applied for a new open work permit which is currently under processing, can I leave Canada? I received a letter after applying for this titled "WP-EXT only except PGWP" that claims if I leave Canada then I am no longer permitted to keep working. Is this only relevant after my current PGWP expires?

Any information would be helpful.

Thanks
