Does BOWP application invalidate your un-expired PGWP?

[zhshi0412]

Hello. My PGWP is expiring in Sep, 2025 and I want to apply for BOWP now in July, 2025 because the processing time is quite long right now.
But I have concern that once I appy for BOWP, can I still use my un-expired PGWP to travel? Will the application of BOWP invalidate my current PGWP?

Hope anyone with similar experiences to comment on the topic. Thanks!

No. Since you have ITA and AOR, it does not.

A PGWP is not a travel document. It is a work document. If you want to re-enter then you need TRV.
