    leaving and returning to Canada while awaiting PR

    During the process of your PR application you may leave and come back as many times as you like given that you do hold a valid visitor/study or work permit. Since I got my BOWP in June I've travelled to U.S. 5 times and the officer at canadian border only looks at my passport, BOWP and asks...

    BOWP - Reentry to Canada

    You don't have to stay in Canada until the permit is approved, but it's always good to have a peace of mind leaving with a new document on hand. They will process your BOWP based on the documents you submitted at the time of application and will mail it to the address you indicate on your...

    what do I do if I won't get my BOWP in time?

    Bridging Open workpermit

    Apply for your BOWP first, and after it's approved you can submit temporary resident status extension application for your dependents, but make sure it's submitted before their current permit expires. You have enough time to do that till November. That's what I did and received my son's Visitor...

    CEC - BOWP - Health Insurance

    I wonder how you did that?! Service Ontario didn't want to extend my OHIP until my employer faxed the reference letter to them while I was waiting at the counter. And they didn't care much that it was case 27 BOWP.

    if holding OWP, can we apply for the health insurance card?

    I have BOWP and I extended my OHIP health card a few days ago. In addition to the standard doc's you are gonna need to show your new work permit and a proof of a full time employment, like a reference letter.
