Hi All,

I am applying for BOWP. When filling forms, it asks for 10 years of employment history but only has 3 rows to enter data. How can I add extra rows and enter my remaining work history as I am applying online?

Please help. Thanks!
You are not required to do that, just fill 3 and it will work. I did the same

Yes Sir, it will expire by Feb 2021. But till then I need some employment to sustain my family! Can i work for other employers while i am working for bowp?
That will depend on your existing WP, whether it is OWP or is employer specific.

Congrats! I had the same, I checked my profile to see the update but no communication from IRCC. A couple of days later I got an email and the letter confirming it in my profile.
Have you received the refund for biometrics yet? Biometrics were waived for temporary resident applications, so I'm just wondering if they would refund the fee.

No refund yet, I'm not sure how long it will take. From what I've read a lot of people got a refund on the same day, so I'm assuming they refund in waves, so may be a bit early yet for me.

Hello Ramaa

My open work permit expires on May 19th 2021, and my PR process is going on. If everything goes well i should get my PR by Jan
My AOR is June 26th for Pr
I am waiting for biometrics call and i live in Calgary.

I want to understand when is the best time to apply BOWP.
If in case i dont get BOWP approved( as processes are going slow), before May 19th, Do i have to stop working?
Covid situation is going terrible.

My open work permit is expiring in February and I applied for BOWP in October, within 4 months of the expiry date as they recommended.

I am also waiting for the biometrics call in Calgary as well.

If in case you dont get approved before Feb - will it affect ur employment, do you have to stop working?
