Hi Everyone,

i applied for bowp on October 19, 2020. I realized that i forgot to submit AOR, I did that via webform the same day. Today I saw profile/application updated for bowp. Now it has changed to submitted. Does that mean, theyhave updated AOR or what could be the possibility?????) thanks

Hi everyone..My current work permit is expiring March 2021..I submitted my BOWP application yesterday and received a confirmation letter from IRCC in my account today..I see a statement in this letter “..as proof that you are authorized to continue working with the same conditions (ie: employer and occupation) until April 02, 2021 or until a decision is made on your application, whichever is first”.

My understanding was that we have the implied status till the time we get a decision on our BOWP application. But it seems it’s 4 months from date from application.

I am concerned as I have seen the average BOWP processing time is more than 4 months.

Anyone in the same situation??
Any thoughts?

Buddy it says until april 2021 or until a deacision is made on ur file so if the decsion on ur file takes longer you can still keep working u will be on implied status..they mentioned whichever is first because very few ppl gt BOWP before 4months processing time...Dont worry as long as your BOWP is under processing u will be on implied status only case u will be losing implied status is if ur PR gets rejected in between ur BOWp cannot be approved and u will be losing status...in ur case if this happens after march 2021..

You do not have to worry, it should be fine. but to be more sure, contact them via phone and make sure the AOR has been added to your file.

BOWP can take anywhere from 104 days to 4 months. Many even get the PR before that, in that case immediately ask for refund of BOWP fee.
