BOWP - Return to Home Country

[vto]

I need the clarification on following scenario:

Applied CEC then got AOR, then applied for BOWP as existing WP about to expire.
Got the BOWP but didn't get any job before existing WP end date.

Now my questions are:
- Can I stay unemployed in Canada on BOWP?
- If I return to my home country and try my luck from there to get job in Canada, can canadian employers hire me based on BOWP?
- Based on BOWP, can I travel back and forth without any job offer?

Seriors or similar experience people please answer....

Thanks Matt...
Have you seen such cases....

In that case BOWP is kind of 1 year PR ;D

I was on a Working Holiday visa (actually 3 consecutive ones before they changed the rules ) before applying for PR and they work much the same way.

Free to work anywhere you like or be unemployed. You don't get EI or anything like that, and you can't study. Otherwise you are free to stay in Canada or go back home or do whatever, so long as your work permit has not expired.

To travel back and forth , you need to renew your TRV.

Its not a 1 year PR , we can say as 1 year R (Resident)

Oh right...if you need a visa to stay in Canada normally you will still need one. Didn't think of that, us Aussies are visa exempt.

theboss...so if I go back to my country with BOWP, I have to apply and get TRV from there to come to Canada (if I dont have any work offer)...!!!

 

[theboss]

If you have enough time just apply it here(I did that way). I dont know much about applying after moving to home country (But i heard its comparitively pretty faster than within canada). Just lets wait for someone to reply who applied trv outside of canada with bowp.
