just received my BOWP applied Dec 10,2014
My timeline: Appl received Feb 15,2014
AOR March 15,2014
Ecas status says "application received"
No communication since :(
did anyone submit settlement of funds?
to my understanding from the CIC website you dont need to if :
you have a valid offer of arranged employment in Canada AND
you are currently working or authorized to work in Canada.
Thanks for your feedback
