    permit expires before 12 month mark

    ...to get an ITA right away, you would need to be prepared to submit right away (e.g. police clearances, letters from past employers, etc), to retain your eligibility for a Bridging Open Work Permit (your BOWP application would have to be received by 21 Oct 2019; need to include the AOR with that.).

    Can you recieve Bowp before PR is approved in principal?

    The concept of "approval in principle" is old, it does not really apply to EE applications. If deemed eligible, IRCC can finalize your BOWPs as soon as your PR applications have passed the completeness check and are put into processing.

    Acknowledgement of receipt (R10 passed) letter

    ...the letter is sent by mail. This letter should not be confused with the electronic receipt of the application for permanent residence letter. This is the official acknowledgement of receipt letter and it may be used to support a bridging open work permit if all other requirements are met.

    Common-law partner's visa expiring in 1 week

    Did the CBSA officer not inform your partner that his stay was being limited when he entered? As said above, just apply online to extend his visitor status. He should state in the app that he is requesting the extension because he is submitting a sponsorship app and include the PR fee receipt...

    Bridging Open Work Permit

    Hi - Go head and apply for BOWP before your current WP/VISA expires. CIC will not be sending any other document or email. The AOR you have received after you have applied for PR via Express Entry should be enough to apply for BOWP. Good luck

    are we expecting any draw tonight?

    Re: Please help me I'd hired an immigration consultant and he'd applied on my behalf. He did say at the time we were applied that it would likely be rejected (as I hadnt yet submitted my PR app or received ITA at the time). Maybe I just got lucky with it. There's no harm for you to apply...

    Transfer from PNP to CEC?

    ...is very important for CEC, especially job duties. If you can make it before the "express entry" disruption, you can get a bridging open work permit once you receive AOR for your CEC application. Once you have the BOWP, you no longer rely on your employer, so in case of lay off, you can just...

    February 2013 Applications!!!

    I know what you mean with regards to finding out what's in your GCMS notes. But its better to get a sense of what's going on and try to figure out the next step rather than just having to wait forever. The BOWP can be extended. I'm positive you will hear from CIC before May, but just in case...

    BOWP - How many of you have applied and received it successfully?

    ...check GCMS anyway. Enclose a cover letter that refers to operational bulletin 485A, explains that you are applying for a bridging open work permit, and asks that they verify a positive eligibility decision has been made on your Canadian Experience Class application. I don't know if any of...

    Great news for CEC Applicants - OPEN Work Permits now available

    Hey there I'm not sure if this info would help you but when I was applying for my latest working holiday visa I was issued one that only had a duration of just under 12 months. I thought this was strange so I contacted CIC and they had me fill out a "request for change of status" (I think that...

    BOWP - How many of you have applied and received it successfully?

    ...either. Come to think of it now, I really dunno why I didn't. I called CIC and the agent I spoke to was not aware of Bridging Open Work Permit. I had to reference the bulletin number and she put me on hold. She basically read out what the website says and didn't really answer my question...
