Hi Guys,

I'm sept 6 BOWP applicant, haven't received BOWP yet. So emailed CIC asking about my application. They replied as below..

The application has been approved and is in queue to be printed.

But when I check my status online still it says Submitted and Open. Can I trust this email or it is just some template email? Also what do they mean when they are saying is in queue to be printed?

My online BOWP application was received on Sep 1st. I called the call centre twice and both agents I spoke to told me that it has been approved. I haven't received the paper permit yet, and on my representative's online portal it still doesn't show approved. I'm really worried about this.

I called the call centre people and they are saying that application is still open and they have sent a message to officer to work on the application. But when I asked them by email they said it has been approved. I got this email yesterday. Even today call centre people said it is still open. One thing I learnt is we can't trust call centre people.

I am Sepetember 29 applicant and in same situation in which you are in.
Agent told me when they print and mail to you than your online status changed to approved.

It takes them upto 2 weeks to print after it gets approved.

Hi all Senior

I really need your advises.

My husband will apply for BOWP next week. We are CEC Sept 2014 App.
Is there anyway to apply for BOWP for us at the same time online?

I follow this forum for some months. I came across only how to do that on paper based application.
We dont know much about how to apply for BOWP, so online is only options for us.

I emailed to this Question@cic.gc.ca , I sent 100s of emails to CIC among them I only get replies for some, I guess this is one of them. Also you can expect reply if the application is delayed to current Processing date

Yes, it's been approved last week. I called last weeknon Feb 3, a day after when I receive email stating "your file has been upadated. Please log into your account to see update." When I log into it still shows file status open and there is no update by now.
