well im sure it will happen soon.
i think its fair that they process applications of outside applicants first since they r the ones who need to come to canada
I disagree, as I believe all applicants should be treated equally. However, people who are already in Canada have spent a lot of $$$ and time to get where there are at the moment i.e. in Canada and I can argue that they should be prioritize for their had work.

ok but you are not losing anything.
its not like people in canada are losing their status or their visas are expiring that they demand they get processed first. If that was happening to a great extent, then yes, they can make a point about getting their applications processed sooner.
Only a portion of CEC applicants are eligible for BOWP. Below is an example of CEC applicants who could not obtain BOWP and can only wait in Canada for PPR with visitor status (cannot work):
  • Work permit expired before AOR. They could not apply BOWP and get implied status.
I admit, some folks in this forum are unnecessarily anxious, but we simply need to understand that there are people with real demand of speedy processing :) Hope this helps with your understanding. Cheers and good luck to us all!

got it. thanks.
wish i knew that u can apply for BOWP once u got ITA.
Not sure if you can get right after ITA.

I have checked with CIC recently and they said you can only apply for BOWP when you have submitted all the papers and you are under AOR status plus your present work permit is not expired . They do not considered getting ITA as any status for PR processing.

That's true... can only apply BOWP with AOR. I will edit my last post here to reflect this.

I am not sure. Maybe ask your organization to help you out with preparing Job Letter matching with NOC code? Or call CIC and ask them about the same. Don't worry.
Your application will be viewed by the Main Visa Officer, if he/she approves it then you will receive PPR.
