Bridging Open Work Permit

[ContactFront]

I'm an idiot. I submitted my bowp a few days ago and totally forgot to submit a nomination letter to "Letter of Explanation". Any ideas what to do now?

Send it via web form

Bridge permit is one type of open work permit.
Make sure you submit all the documents properly.

Hello, I am in a similar situation, and i figured the steps you described might be my best option to submit my application for a bowp online. However, do you know anyone who has submitted it this way and gotten their bowp or were they rejected after submitting it this way and told to try a different way?

Dear,

I got nomination from Alberta and got AOR from IRCC.
Now I lost my job. I have closed work permit. So I must inform AINP that now I unemployed.
Have anyone experience if AINP can withdraw my nomination or not?
What do you think if I apply BWOP in order to get open work permit and find new job without LMIA if my visa ends in 12 months although BWOP required only less then 4 months.

Thanks!

Hi there,
I am same under AINP but I have not received AOR yet. I emailed PNP office and told her my situation. There is response:
Thank you for taking the time to keep us updated on your employment status. The AINP will continue to support your nomination as you met the working requirements at the time of assessment. Be sure to keep us informed once your employment resumes.

BOWP is only if your work permit expires less than 4 months so don't apply it now if your work permit isn't expired soon. I heard they will decline your application.
Hope this helps.
