Dear experienced members of the forum, request you to kindly share your valuable opinion:

I understand VWOWP is for vulnerable workers in Canada. During the process of the application, is the migrant vulnerable worker allowed to leave Canada (while the application is pending) and return? A lot of places it says to be eligible a worker has to be in Canada at the time of applying. But whether the worker can travel while the application is pending is not clearly mentioned anywhere.

Appreciate your help!

If you have a valid work permit and a TRV if necessary, you can leave the country and return during the period of validity. If you are on implied status, leaving the country will 'cancel' your application.
