You may be eligible to apply for a Bridging Open Work Permit (BOWP) once your PR application is officially submitted. If your current work permit expires before the BOWP is approved, maintained status kicks in. That means you can legally keep working under your exact previous permit conditions, provided you stay put in Canada while the paperwork processes. Qualifying family members can also pick up open work permits along the way.
