AOR in September Let's Connect here

My passport is still in Ottawa and I just got a message that my BOWL was approved

Congratulations, maryliag. Can you please explain the whole process of BOWP. My wife's work permit is expiring on August 31, 2016 and she is principal applicant of our PR. Also, her work permit is dependent on my student VISA.

It was very simple.
Apply online, on the questions in the beginning she have to say that is for a new work permit, that she passed the initial requirements of the permanent residency and she is living in Canada.
On the forms don't put a employer or anything and select open work permit.
On the field for support or extra document (I don't remember the exact name) I created a document saying that I was applying for the bridging open work permit to be able to keep working until the result of my permanent residency got approved, than I attached my AOR letter (the first one we got within minutes of applying).
That was it

I applied on Dec 4, my visa and work permit expired on Jan 2, I'm on implied status after that, and today I got approved and they are sending on the mail. Now let's see if I'll get my passport back or the new permit first hehe

Your current work permit has to be expiring with in 4 months or less. That is a requirement for BOWP. So you can only apply 4 months before Aug 31 - not sooner.

Thank you, fkl. That means we cannot apply before April 31, 2016. Our 6 months processing period for PR application is getting over on April 15, 2016. If we don't get PPR by then, we will have to apply for BOWP.
