Too bad. so are you going to be on implied status now and continue working? My friend is in a similar situation so just wanted to know what you plan to do.
i am going to apply for a visitor permit (doing it now actually). I just would hate to be at the border with landing papers (hopefully) and hit a problem because i continued working on implied status when i applied for a BOWP that it states quite clearly on the website now (updated last week - see link) that with what i have (first AOR), that i am not eligible...

"Express Entry
In the Express Entry application process, a notice and a letter are sent to the applicant. Only the letter (Acknowledgment of Receipt) can be used to support a BOWP.
A notice (Electronic receipt of APR) is automatically issued to the applicants on receipt of their electronic application submission. This notice indicates the following: “Your application is being checked to determine whether it meets the requirements of a complete application pursuant to section 10 and section 12.01 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Regulations.” This notice cannot be used to support a BOWP, as it does not reflect that the applicant has received a “positive eligibility assessment” as required for a BOWP. "
i maybe being overly cautious, but i would hate to screw up PR because i couldn't wait a month or 2 without working
