I received my confirmation email after 20 hours. You should contact the CIC to attach the AOR.

Hello people,
I just checked my CIC account and it says my BOWP is approved. I haven't received an official email yet but I'm so relieved! I was on implied status since April 18.

AOR: Mar 22, 2017
BOWP submission: Mar 24, 2017
BOWP on Hold: May 7, 2017
BOWP approved: May 11, 2017

Hope this would help others.

Hi I applied BOWP with pnp letter and FN on march 282017. Today status has changed to on hold, which is strange, as I know, FN means I have complete my R10, so I called CiC, they said FN means R10 complete not pass, I have to wait R10 pass to get BOPW approved. Anyone in the same situation? How long to wait to get R10 pass? How can I know R10 is passed? Thanks in advance

BOWP on hold means that you have not yet passed R10. You can know whether you passed R10 by applying for the GCMS notes.

Thanks for your reply. I found out that for GCMS would take about 20days if$5 is paid otherwise 30 days. I also want to know AOR from federal government with file number for provincial nomination does' t necessarily means R10 pass? I know for EE have to wait for R10 . For PNP, FN should means R10 pass? Thanks for your time a lot

Hello Sunnychu, I am on the same track applied for my BOWP on March 28, 2017 and I can see it was updated yesterday to "On Hold" and what is FN you are referring to? Sorry I am bad with acronyms.

BOWP on hold means that you have not yet passed R10. You can know whether you passed R10 by applying for the GCMS notes.
I received my GCMS notes recently where does it exactly say on it if R10 completeness check was done or not?

Thanks,
Zainy

Hi Zainy 89
FN is the file number on acknowledgement of receipt letter from CIC, I am an AINP paper based applicant. my PR application is under processing,
Review of eligibility: We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirement
Review of additional documents :Not applicable.
Interview :You do not need an interview. We will send you a message if this changes. Help

Background check : We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information.

Final decision: Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made.
are you on the same category? which step are you now?
also I just order GCMS yesterday. won't get it within one month yet. is yours passed R10 yet on GCMS?
thanks

Hi guys

Hi have applied BOWP on March 28th as well. How do we know if our application is put on "Hold". Right now My Workpermit application status shows as "Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made"

Do we receive any email or update from CIC mentioning that our application is put on "hold" ..?

@Sunnychu on my GCMS notes I don't see anything which says such as "R10" but however my eligibility shows as Passed - Candidate and rest of the fields for medicals, criminality and background check is all blank which says that they haven't started any of those yet except for my eligibility I am sure yours should be the same at this stage or you might see some more progress to your application by the time you received your GCMS notes which is after 30 days since you mentioned that you just ordered them recently. Please keep me posted if anything changes

Thanks,
Zainy

@satish20K My application for BOWP changed to "On Hold" the same day I received my GCMS notes which is on May 12, 2017 for me it first got updated on my CIC account and then next day I received an email saying that I have new message in CIC which is again indicating that my BOWP went to On Hold in some cases it can be vice versa
