Question, I was planning to get a new SIN today as my BOWP came in recently. Given the news, I am thinking I should still get a new SIN for now, but do you think I should just wait for the PR instead?
It depends on your previous sin. Is it still valid? If not (It is not hard to imagine, given that you applied for BOWP) I would say renew it. Because for PR, you need to wait for the final review and pr, then you need to submit your passport, receive the COPR and do the landing. After landing, you are eligible to get a new sin number. All these might take one month and if you are working, you need to have a sin to receive valid payments. Plus, renewing sin is free and it won't hurt if you renew it.
PS: with BOWP, your sin won't change, they just update the expiry date. But, with COPR they will change your sin and will give you a new number.

Completed 1 whole year yesterday

AOR July 17 2018
Was in RR for POF
Updated proactively in March 2019
Got ADR in May 2019 and submitted documents in May 2019
File moved from Ottawa to NDVO in May 2019
Medical expired and status changed to you don't need medicals
No other movement and still in IP1
No response for web forms and emails to NDVO
Call centre agents can't give any information as the file got moved to NDVO
Ordered for second GCMS on 10th June 2019 and only movement I could see till June 12 was that after file reaching NDVO in May, my wife's medicals submitted in May 2019 was passed. Mine got expired in June and status changed to you don't need medical. The wait is too long and nothing seems to be happening.

Sadly there is not much you can do. It seems like you have done all that was in your hands and taken the right actions. For now you just need to find a way to keep waiting. It is easier to say but difficult to wait. I hope you hear back soon. Just keep sending webforms every 15/20 days.
