Hey guys, I tried calling CIC to ask this question but they are busy and I was not able to go through with them.

So I'm currently in Canada on my PGWP but my problem is that it expires in the next 3 months.

My PR application is almost complete and just waiting for Biometrics (unless they flip decision after Biometrics idk)

So my dilemma is that should I still renew for work permit?

I just want to make sure since I would need to take another medical examination because I had my medical last June 2019 and probably some other requirements that I have not yet check

Just to be safe I would recommend you apply for BOWP. They will going for the Christmas break in the next few weeks and when you factor the delay due to the pandemic, there is a possibility you might not receive your COPR before your PGWP expires in 3 months.
