Hi all,

My work visa is due to expire in March.

I've applied for my PGWP which I'm awaiting results back from CIC and also applied BOWP for my PR application so I can continue working.

If for whatever reason my PGWP is refused would this have any negative effect on my BOWP?
Can I still work while I wait for my BOWP as I'll be on implied status?

Your post is confusing. If you're on a work permit now - you wouldn't qualify for a PGWP. You have to be on a study permit to qualify for a PGWP.

I have a study permit and a work permit that are both due to end in March. Sorry forgot to add that in.
