If it is showing you a TRV form made outside Canada , then you might not have selected Current country of residence as Canada in the questionnaire session , Check your answer to this question.

Make sure you answer "Yes" for questions , 1. PR approved in principle(for CEC AOR received can be considered as yes for this case) 2. PR applied with in Canada.
This will enable you to show a Open Work permit form after completion initial questionnaire.

These fields are to be filled , if your son required a Study permit.

As per CIC web site :
Minor children who are already in Canada accompanying a parent who is permitted to study or work may study in Canada without a study permit at the pre-school, primary and secondary levels.

Minor children at the pre-school and kindergarten levels are not required to hold a valid study permit.

- So your case you may leave this filed empty or say going to kindergarten .

For details : http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/study/minors-documents.asp

Hey guys,

I received my approval for BOWP permit and i applied for it on May 28th 2013. Today being the 30th of June. So in terms of how many ppl get it renewed i would say prob almost anyone who fits the criteria under CEC.

I guess you could say that this also puts some perspective on the processing times as well in case any of you were wondering regarding the CIC strike.

Hope this helps.

For you and your spouse capture the 10 years employment history.

For minors say not applicable or not working ,The PDF expects a valid a start year and month("From Date ")
for employment history , Capture " From date" as date of birth of your son and other details just say Not applicable.With this you should be able to validate the form.

Give me private message if need further assistance.

Since you are already applied for PR with an intention to stay permanently ,To be consistent, Answer "permanently " to this question , It won't make any difference to your application forms generated by the CIC system.
