BOWP - How many of you have applied and received it successfully?

[peachie]

this is a very helpful topic

You may convince them to give you a BOWP with more than four months remaining. What's important is that the BOWP is not a means for changing out of a job you don't like. It's intended for PR applicants whose status is about to run out, and therefore would lose the ability to support themselves financially whilst their PR application is pending.

Were there not instructions on your letter? I don't know if you are supposed to get your passport stamped? Do you have trv too?

There are no instructions on my WP, I need to get me PPT stamped if i have to go out og north america. I don't know what is trv.
Can you tell me what is trv?

Hi folks,

for BOWP also, as like PR the processing timeliness seems to be varying for different applicants. Its not first in first serve looks like. For some who applied on Sept 4th got the approval mail sometime back. I applied Aug 27th and i got the approval mail today. It took exactly 41 days for me to get the approval email. I am relieved now.

all the best for those waiting.
