Nope nothing, I had to call them to find out. It's been approved on Oct 2, Im still waiting for it to show up in the mail.

I also raised a Case specific enquiry few days ago, before I called them, and I never got any response.
hi Irada_g,
I had called CIC and they said they are waiting for R10 check from my pr application.
what does that mean? she said your background in PR app is not completed yet .

R10 is eligibility check, they are checking if all your application package is complete and if you actually qualify for the program you applied for. Once that is done, they will proceed with BOWP.
When did you apply for BOWP? Online or on paper?

Hi irada_g
What are the requirements to be met to apply for BOWP ??
You have to be currently working in Canada under valid WP, and have application for PR in process. Technically you have to have received AoR to apply for BOWP, but in some cases like mine, I could not wait so I applied before I got AOR and sent it to them when I got it, and BOWP eventually got approved.

You have to wait until 4 months to expiry, they wont accept it earlier. I applied 20 days before mine expired. I dont know how long it's good for, I havent received mine yet :(

hi ,
I had applied on July 6 and its online application.
actually I applied on April 12 and wp expiry date is July 7,cic rejected my bowp without any valid reason PNP restricted but its not.
so I had submitted CSE and wait for their reply and they said decision is correct and I have to reapply.
so I applied again on 6th july

Update from me: called Cic today, the lady said my work permit has been approved and has been mailed to me on Oct 2nd (like 10 days ago). Should be arriving sometime next week (unless it's lost in the mail or delivered to wrong address!)

Once again, I applied by paper on June 7.
Hi irada what number did you call?
