Hi, i applied just 2 days before you applied. I applied as a single applicant. It got approved today January 5th.

I think they should have given you a letter by the name of WP-EXT except PGWP. In it they stated that I am authorized to work until Jan 7th. I am guessing your application should be finalized near to the date mentioned in your letter. Same goes for you @PandaCacahuetes . I think your said January 12th right?
Hi, could you please tell what’s the validity of your bowp? 1 year or 2 years?
thanks

Actually bowp is issued for 6 months if you applied for pr under fsw or pnp category.
Only for cec it is 2 years:( my employer opted to do work
Permit extension owing to this than applying for bowp. I applied for work
Permit extension in dec as my work permit expires in March mid. This is what info I found, not a cent percent sure.

That’s interesting. I didn’t know. We didn’t think much too. Employer was getting it done. Never expected this kind of a delay when I submitted the application for pr. For me it’s 16+ months wait now.

I have applied for BOWP 2 times now and both the times they gave 1 year extension to me. Although this time because my passport expires in November the validity of my permit is until my passport expiry. Also, can anybody tell how long it takes for the work visa application once you have received the permit?

This is such great news, congratulations. Would you mind sharing what's the status of you medicals on your online profile? Also are you saying you got absolutely no updated or ADRs after medical expiry?

Sorry, what I meant was - no updates or ADRs after medicals were passed again after expiry. My medicals were passed again on 18th November 2021. That's the status on my online profile - medicals passed on 18th Nov. Same status on "Latest update" at the top of my application.
