I have quick question about BOWP for myself and my wife.
I created the online profile and both of our application is coming under one profile (What I mean is that I do not need to do an application from my wife's SOWP separately right ?).

So filling my form I choose - apply for work permit with the same employer (Since I am the primary applicant on PR and received AOR) which I believe is reasonable.

I am confused on choosing the same for my wife's form.Should I choose - applying first time work permit or new employer ? or the same as mine ?(my wife has a SOWP).

Let me know if you remember these from the time you applied.

Thanks ,
Jano

Right option for both of you is "first time work permit...".

Thank you .But wouldn't that be noticeable by IRCC officer since me and my wife are already on a work permit and inland applicant ?

Not sure what you mean. You are applying for OPEN work permits, meaning zero connection to an employer. "First time.." is the right option, as you are not applying for a work permit related to your current employer.

Hi,

I am on closed work permit and due to some reason I have left the job. I am applying for vulnerable work permit. I do not have any job. Which option I select.
  • A work permit with the same employer
  • An initial work permit or a work permit with a new employer
Thanks
