Bridge Open Work Permit

If you currently hold a Work Permit in Canada and have submitted an application for permanent residency, you may be eligible to apply for a Bridging Open Work Permit (BOWP).

When to apply for the BOWP

If you’ve applied for permanent residency via the Express Entry system, you can initiate your Bridging Open Work Permit (BOWP) application as soon as you receive your Acknowledgment of Receipt (AoR), which is automatically generated and accessible in your Express Entry account upon submission of your application.

However, issuance of the BOWP is contingent upon Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) conducting a completeness check (R10 check) of your permanent residence application, typically within the initial stages of processing, before the BOWP is granted.

A BOWP is only available if you’ve already applied for permanent residence. Here’s how to apply for Canadian PR.
