Yes, I have applied for the extension of my BOWP and to be honest, haven't come across anyone (personally or on online threads/forums) who did the same. The last time I called the IRCC helpline to ask about this, they told me that my PR application is in its final stage before COPR and asked me to apply for an extension of BOWP 1 month before its expiry if I don't get a decision on my PR application (this would be same as you would apply for a normal WP extension). I did so in the first week of this month and received a temporary extension of WP until Feb 2022. This can be used as my current WP till they process the application and give a decision on it. Hope that helps!

Finally time has come to share some good news. I only hoped for it because just like many of you I also ran out of patience. Despite thinking that my application is straight forward nothing went straight. My application was status quo since 24-Sep-2020, reason, well, could only figured out that our medicals were not valid for 6 months, our meds expired in Nov 2020, precisely that was the only hold. We did not hear from IRCC at all and just waited.

I ordered my gcms notes every other month just to ensure I am not missing any important message from IRCC. Our medicals were extended in Jul 2021 and then passed in Aug 2021 and got eCOPR in Sept 2021.

I also contacted our local MP and they were kind enough to follow-up with IRCC for straight 6 months. Just before the elections, I received an email from MP office that if I don't here from IRCC by end of Sept 2021 then to reach back to them and exactly that when we got our eCOPRs.

Here's my complete timeline from ITA to PR card for your reference and if it helps:

Hi there! I'm still waiting for my Pr to be finalized - Aor July 07. I will have to request BOWP for me and my husband. @legalfalcon My question is for my kids ( 7 and 12 years old) , they currently hold a student permit, do I have to apply for a student permit extention or can I apply for a visitor record while waiting for PR ( which is easier to apply) . Thanks
