Thanks alot Zubair , what do you say If i get a PER before expiring my work permit than obviously I will go for the Bridge Work Permit but the situation is my wife and my kid is back home so could it be possible at the time of applying BWP I include my family in that also . In your opinion what do you say they will get approved also or not .
Regards
Bro,
I am not very much aware of the process of BWP but I guess you can include them as dependent or better to consult relevant person. Below is updated info on CIC WEB
Qualifying foreign nationals currently in Canada who have submitted an application for permanent residence under the Federal Skilled Worker Program (FSWP), Canadian Experience Class (CEC), Provincial Nominee Program (PNP) or the Federal Skilled Trades Program (FSTP) may be considered for an open work permit if their current work permit will soon expire.
To be eligible for a bridging open work permit, the applicants must:
Currently be in Canada;
Have valid status on a work permit that is due to expire within 4 months;
Have received confirmation from CIC that their permanent resident application is eligible under one of the four Economic Classes (FSWP, CEC, PNP and FSTP), and;
Have made an application for an open work permit.
For further information regarding eligibility, please see the operational bulletin:
