We're still waiting for our paper application for the BOWP as well as for our AOR number, both to be expected in February. My husband is traveling next week and we know there's the risk of loosing your implied status and having to re enter as a tourist. Since he's the main applicant and I'm not traveling, will I loose my implied status as well? Will they still process the BOWP or will you loose your application as well.

Not a "risk," a fact, by the rules of "implied status." If you leave Canada while on implied status, you lose it. If he re-enters as a visitor, he will not be able to work until he receives a new work permit.

It does not affect your eligibility for new work permits. And if you don't leave Canada, it won't affect your status.
