    Yes, you can apply BOWP for spouse, however with the change of instructions on BOWP I am not sure if you can use your automated AOR.

    EE who waiting more than 2 months after AOR join here

    Mannual, I suggest you to file another BOWP application with your Nomination if your current work permit is still valid. Since your ecas status is "in process" I suspect this is still with CIC Ottawa. In order for your BOWP to be approved the application should be with CIO for eligibility...

    Bridging Open Work Permit (BOWP) - Eligibility/ Instructions updated on CIC

    As the new fee change came into force on Feb 20th and you applied on Feb 9th, I think you should be good. They might ask you to pay the additional fee of $100. If they think otherwise they might have rejected by now. All the best.

    Bridging Open Work Permit (BOWP) - Eligibility/ Instructions updated on CIC

    Processing fee is $155, Work Permit holder fee is $100 so in total for BOWP application we need to pay $255. I paid only $155. Hence my paper based BOWP application got rejected for this simple reason. :o

    Bridging Open Work Permit (BOWP) - Eligibility/ Instructions updated on CIC

    I think they are considering your application. Because my paper based application (filed March 19th) was returned on May 6th. So they might have returned your application by now if they are not processing. And as an FYI.. I filed two BOWP applications 1. Paper based on March 19th - Erroneously...

    Bridging Open Work Permit (BOWP) - Eligibility/ Instructions updated on CIC

    I am hoping so, because I have not seen anyone receiving a 2nd AOR at least by VOs in Canada. I have seen the issuance of 2nd AOR for an applicant recently but this was issued by a VO office abroad (New Delhi).

    Bridging Open Work Permit (BOWP) - Eligibility/ Instructions updated on CIC

    CIC has updated the eligibility requirements for applying BOWP under Express Entry. Seems like we cannot use the system generated AOR to apply BOWP. The AOR should be issued by CIO. So I am assuming if an application is in CIO Sydney with ecas status "Application Received" can be considered AOR...

    Does status change on ECAS or CIC application once completeness check is done?

    As far as I know, When you received additional documents request while your ecas status is "In Process" that means CIC is requesting those documents as they are found missing when they are checking for completeness of your application. When you received additional documents request while your...

    ONTARIO RESIDENTS - WHO HAVE APPLIED FOR EXPRESS ENTRY 2015 LET US CONNECT HERE

    I am not sure but I don't think years will matter in your case. About the call to employers, CIC do not prepare employers for their call. They may call your employer or not it will dependent on the VO and your particular case. If I were you I would inform my employer just in case. All the best.
