Hello all,
Long time lurker posting for the first time, I thought I should post my status and also ask seniors what my next step(s) should be in my current situation. I came to Canada in 2007, graduated from university and got PGWP and started working. Got married (she is canadian) and we have a baby. After 2 years of working applied for PR under CEC. I applied in april 2014, got AOR in may 2014. In Nov 2014, my gcms notes updated with the following:

Basically since coming to Canada, I have been back to India only once for 2 weeks to attend a wedding and I have been here since 2007. My passport expires in AUG this year. My PGWP expires in JULY this year as well.
My only option at the moment seems like the BOWP. Also, today I got my medical done in advance. I am hoping to send the details to CIC today.
Now my question to all you cool folks is do you guys see anything bad in the NOTES? What should my action plan be like? I am thinking something along the lines of:
1) Get passport renewed asap
2) Apply for BOWP so I don't lose my job
3) Wait on PR.
They have due date of 2015/05 for pretty much everything, does that mean they will manage to get all that done by then? Its almost been 11 months since I applied and the last update on my gcms notes was in Nov last year. Looks like my file hasn't been touched in more than 3 months.
Anyways, what do you guys think stick with my current plan? Is there something I am missing?
