It very much depends on how your application is submitted. Did you apply as an Inland or an Outland Applicant ?
Hi, I am Inland applicant, Yesterday I received call from Vancouver, BC but I could not attend it. Probably, it was from VO. Anyone in October received nomination?

I'm sorry , I'm not sure about your reply. For BOWP , I don't need my employer to fill the employment offer and pay the fee ?
Sorry by bad for BOWP you don’t need any help of your employer. You just need Aor from your pr application and other documents. If you want to apply for closed work permit then you need your employer help . Is there any employment restrictions on your pnp certificate?
