we need to upload both principal applicant and spouse photos.

These are the digital photo requirements for online application.

Dimensions:

The final frame size of the photo must be at least 35 mm x 45 mm (1 3/8" x 1 ¾").
The photographs must show the full front view of the head, with the face in the middle of the photograph, and include the top of the shoulders.
The size of the head, from chin to crown, must be between 31 mm (1 ¼") and 36 mm (1 7/16").
Digital dimensions are often expressed in pixels or DPI (dots per inch). The physical dimensions in pixels must be at least 420 x 540.
Quality/Resolution:

If an existing photo is being scanned, the minimum resolution must be 600 pixels per inch.
File Format:

The file may be submitted in JPEG or JPEG2000 format.
File Size:

The final size of the image should be ideally 240 kB (kilobytes), but not less than 60 kB.
Colour:

The image must be in color (24 bits per pixel) in sRGB colour space which is the common output for most digital cameras.

I have just applied for BOWP and SOWP online . submitted today.
Please check your questionnaire or start again.
which will redirect you to page for Open work permit or TRV. select Open work permit.
in there the option should be for IMM5710E and other supporting documents to be uploaded.

If you still face the issue. call CIC call center.
Hope this helps

Hi Thanks for the reply. I had before IMM5710E in the doc check list but for some reason changed now. I have selected open work permit but still shows and fee should be 255 but shows 100. May be cache and cookies in the browser. I will try again. Thanks a lot.

Re: BOWP question IMM5710 questions , please need help

Hi All ,

I really need some help on IMM5710 form to apply for BOWP. I am not sure what I have to select on the form.

Question 3 - * A work permit with the same employer
*Restoration of your work permit as a worker
* An Initial work permit or work permit with the new employer
* temporary resident Permit

--- Not sure which one I will select as I am not working as a LMIA

--------------------------
Coming into Canada section:
Question 4 - If applicable provide the document number most recent visitor, study , work permit or temporary resident permit issued to you.
Not sure what they mean ? Is it UCI ?
--------------------------
DETAILS OF INTENDED WORK IN CANADA section

Question 1 - What type of work permit are you applying for ? I have answered "open work permit"

Question 2 - They are asking details of my prospective employer (attach original offer of employment) , what should I have select? Is it my current employer ?
Question 3 , 4 respectively respectively would be my current employer and my job information , I guess .

Please help me . I don't have much time left to apply online and your suggestion would be highly appreciated.

Thank you

here you are...

If you are applying for Open work permit then
Question no 3: * An Initial work permit or work permit with the new employer

Coming into Canada section:

Document no is different than UCI, you would be getting at top right corner (in my case)...
Trail & tested method : Try any no in that field it would say wrong format then compare with that no. UCI doesn't fir in that format.

DETAILS OF INTENDED WORK IN CANADA section

Question 1 - What type of work permit are you applying for ? I have answered "open work permit": Correct answer

Question 2 - They are asking details of my prospective employer (attach original offer of employment) , what should I have select? Is it my current employer ?
Question 3 , 4 respectively respectively would be my current employer and my job information , I guess .

Leave blank, question no 2 to 6 in that section ( as I did in my case).

Thanks a lot for your help. That's what I am thinking to leave blank questions 2 to 6 as it is open permit. Thank you again and highly appreciated.

Hello everyone ,

I have applied for BOWP online and paid by Credit Card while applied. There has a payment receipt generated for $255. On that receipt, I am showing that I will have to write my information send to CIC. Is it true ? If I have to send , what is the email address ? Please need some advice.
Thank you for your time.
