Hi all

I've read through all the posts I can find on BOWP and am preparing my application - I just had a few questions :)

1) in the questionnaire, it asks how long you intend on staying in Canada - temporarily - under 6 months, temporarily - over 6 months, permanently. As I've applied for PR, I assume permanently but then it asks about medicals so I wasn't sure if I should put something else?

2) someone amazing, someone on this forum, posted sample cover letters for different scenarios - does anyone happen to have them? I can't find them anywhere and as I'm applying with more time left on my WP than 4 months, I need to write a kickass letter!

many thanks!

If you put 'work' and '6 months or longer' then you get the option to apply for BOWP. So I think that's what you should chose.

2) someone amazing, someone on this forum, posted sample cover letters for different scenarios - does anyone happen to have them? I can't find them anywhere and as I'm applying with more time left on my WP than 4 months, I need to write a kickass letter!

As far as I remember you're talking about a post with like 3-4 different sample letters? I think
they were all referring to reference letters, not BOWP applications.
If you certain they were BOWP related, let me know and I'll hit the search engine and see what I can come up with.


many thanks!

Cheers

No - there were several letters in one post - courtesy of a bunch of applicants giving different scenarios for the BOWP - including one which gives details on why the applicant is applying with 4+ months left on their work permit. ;)
