To qualify for a Bridging Open Work Permit, you have to wait until you have been selected out of the Express Entry pool (received ITA) and have submitted your complete application before you can apply.

Have you already received ITA and are now just waiting to submit your complete application?
 
Actually my question was if I can apply for my work permit extension now and not about the bridging work permit. My open work permit expires in May 2021. So can I apply now ahead of time as I still have 10months for it to expire. Iam waiting to apply Under express entry as my score is close to 465 and the ongoing score is 478. I am planning to redo my IELTS to Increase my score

On what basis would you be applying to extend your work permit?

Based on the information you have provided so far, you do not qualify for an extension.
