You will receive the approval email the next day.
As EscoBlades already said, you should get your permit by regular mail in couple of days/weeks (I think in the email/letter you'll get the next day after the approval, they will say something of up to 6 weeks).

Hi,

ITA - Feb 14
AOR - April 16th
Medical - May 4th
Biometric uploaded from IEC (2019) - May 4th
Eligibility - Passed May 28th
No update since May 28th.
BOWP & Visitor Record - Applied May 18th , Approved June 21st

I have been following this page since I got my IEC and I have few questions following the approval of my BOWP and my daughter's visitor record.

Sorry if these questions have all been answered before.

a) I received eTA with my BOWP however my daughter didn't get one with her visitor's record, do I need to apply for eTA for her if we need to travel or will the VR work just fine when entering Canada?

b) I am currently on mat leave and receiving maternity benefit, my SIN and healthcard have same validity in August should I renew both for us?


Thanks

I applied for my BOWP on July 5th 2021 and current WP is expiring on Aug 1st 2021. What are the current timelines for BOWP?
I have another question, my open work permit is expiring on Aug 1, 2021 and applied BOWP on July5, 2021. Can I continue to work after Aug. 1, 2021 while waiting for BOWP decision?

I see everyone applying in May and getting their BOWPs. I applied on April 26th and it's been radio silence since I submitted my biometrics for PR and BOWP. I did receive an extension letter that extends my WP to Aug 23 but nothing else really. Would love any advice.

You would have received an message in your GC key account, which will tell you how long you can work before they approve your application

My immigration lawyer applied for a BOWP March 23 2021, my pr application was also submitted on the 23rd March, I haven’t heard a thing for both applications, should I be making an inquiry now?
