Maintained status

[CM2218]

I have a question regarding maintained status for two separate visa. My current situation is that I have applied for LMIA-T13 exempt visa over three months ago and have since been on maintained status following a 2-year IEC.
I was expecting to have the LMIA-Exempt visa by now it by and need to leave the country (planning to return within an month) over the next couple of months.

I also have applied for PR last June via PNP nomination (Non-Express) in BC and have submitted biometrics last month after receiving an AOR.

Obviously leaving the country without PR/LMIA visa I will lose my maintained status and be unable to work upon my return, however is it possible on my return to apply for a BOWP and work on maintained status for this visa ?

I haven’t found much information on this.

TIA for any help.

Does your nomination have an employer restriction?

Does your nomination have an employer restriction?

Thanks for the message. No it’s does not.

You wouldn’t qualify for a BOWP on your return if you are a visitor.
