Hi Maxwell 12345 congrats..
I have two question for you.

1 - When did you received AOR?
2 - Online processing time shows that they are working on September applications and you applied in October.. so does it mean online timing are wrong?

Hie Guys,
I would like to inform you all that i applied for a BOWP without AOR as a paper application on 7th of October, and it got approved on 4th of December.
I would like to thank you all for the guidance.
In my case my Open Work permit expired on 8th of October and since then i was on implied status. The new open work permit issued is for One Year. :D :D
CONGRATS Maxwell.. u can breath a big sigh of relief .. onto the CEC application now :p

Re: BOWP -Guidelines to apply online

Hello friends,
I am trying to apply for BOWP online but the questionnare would not let me go beyond LMO question. I have received AOR ,applied under CEC and my work permit expires in Feb 2015 . I do not have LMO/ LMIA. I read the forum and I assume LMO Is not needed to apply for BOWP.

Any suggestions to get around that LMO/ LMIA requirement for BOWP. I have emailed CIC regarding that but no reply yet.

Thanks.

I answered the questionnaire yesterday and didn't come across any LMO question. Go through your response to the previous questions that are leading to LMO and modify the response if required.
