    Is there any one got BOWP based on Express entry AOR?

    I know... To be honest, I was certain that my BOWP was going to be rejected, so I also applied for a visitor permit on February 20 (got the visitor permit end of March). I was very surprised when the CIC agent told me that my BOWP had been approved. I even asked him if he was sure of that...

    Temporary Open Work Permit Refusal

    I am sorry to hear that arpitabs. Are you out of status now? What permit did you have before? You could try and submit a case specific enquiry, but that could take from a few days to a month to get an answer from the officer. I would suggest you to submit a new application for your BOWP...
