has someone got BOWP this week? I submitted on March 10. I called them and they keep telling me they are working on March 7th applications as what the website says. But that information was last updated on May 15, they asked me to wait until next week.

Hi fvidania,
Did you apply your BOWP by mail or online?
Did you recieve " second AOR" or you apply by "Autometed AOR"? Any updating?

Gosh, it takes so long eh.....
I applied on May 7th based on Autometed AOR by post.....
My agent was not so sure can we apply based on Auto AOR sucessfully, but there's no option to me.
She suggested me to apply by post then I can have around 77 to 90 days implied status to wait if there's second AOR coming up to me.
Hope miracle happen to both of us...... Be positive

Today, we received an update Shocked from CIC because of our work permit. They asked my husband for $100 and they asked me for a letter of acceptance from the intended educational institution for my kids. Can someone please tell me what they mean by a letter of acceptance from the intended educational institution? And do they want the letter from the school or the board?

I have a daughter age 14 came here on student visa and one of the requirements is to get an acceptance letter from a school here in Canada. I just went to the school and asked for an acceptance letter with school's letterhead with principal's signature.
