Hi Guys,
hope somebody can help me with this.

So I have PGWP and it expires on July 2017. However, I was sponsored by my bf (common-law Partner) and I am having a little issue now.

Since my PGWP expires soon, I was thinking of apply for bridging open work permit but i am not sure under what program I am applying.

My PR application in on process (which i have applied on june 2016) and since my PGWP expires July, I need somebody to tell me what I should next. :(

P.S
I am working full time right now

You don't qualify for a bridging open work permit. BOWPs are only available to people who have applied to immigrate through economic streams.

Depending on how you applied to be sponsored (inland or outland) - you may qualify for an open work permit linked to this application.

Isnt PGWP is already an open work permit? I applied in canada and I am currently working and living in canada.

What do you suggest?
