Hi,

I have applied for PR in provincial nominee category on July 2016. I'm expecting my AOR anytime this month (Oct/Nov). Since my work permit expires on December 2016, I have to apply for bridging open work permit (BOWP). I am also working in Toronto for 2 and half years now. I used my cic account to assess the documents needed to apply for BOWP and came across following documents:

1. Application to Change Conditions, Extend my Stay or Remain in Canada as a Worker (IMM5710) (required)
2. Passport (required)
3. Use of a Family Member Representative for Online Applications (IMM5713) (required)
4. Marriage License/Certificate (required)
5. Digital photo (required)
6. Offer of Employment (required)
7. Provincial Nominee Program Certificate (PNC) (required)
8. Letter of Support from Province or Territory (required)
9. Employer Questionnaire and Declaration (required)
10. Proof that you Meet the Requirements of the Job Being Offered (required)

Since BOWP is purely based on AOR of PR application, I got confused with documents 6,7,8,9 and 10. If anybody has experience of applying BOWP, can you please help me in this regard?

Thank you

Hi its normal to see these documents. Try re answering the questionaire. The things you need are the nomination letter, AOR, Passport docs and the form for workpermit application. In other categories you can upload a word document thatvsays not applicable. It shoukd be fine.

Thank you so much for your response. I did change the questionnaire and got only 1-5 in my check list to submit along with AOR.
