Hey.. i have a query.. if someone is here on closed work permit for two years. But he gets the ITA from express entry in just 6 months.. did his closed work permit is still closed or it is open work permit now? And can he work anywhere else?

Does an Express Entry ITA change your closed work permit to open? (BOWP explained)

Work permits don't change just for an ITA. Post submitting the application and if the work permit is about to expire, one can apply for a BOWP to maintain status until the COPR is issued.

ITA doesn't change your status. But you can apply for a bowp to get an open working status.

Your work permit will be the same until your PR application is approved and ECOPR generated
