Link BOWP application (sent June 7th) to AOR (received August 9th) ??

Hi Guys,

How do I go about trying to link my AOR with my BOWP application? ???


BOWP application was sent by mail

Thanks

Do you have the first or the second AOR? The first AOR is the one they send you when you submit your application after ITA. The second AOR is the one you need for your BOWP to be approved. It looks like you just received ITA a few days ago - so I'm assuming you have the first AOR - not the one required for BOWP.

Yup, i just got the first one.

After I get the second (fingers crossed) how do I connect it to my application?

So basically I have to wait for a second ITA which from a quick search across this forum doesn't happen until PR is nearly granted??. Yikkkess my bowp will be refused then next month and I will have to stop working?? Wowsa!! :-[

Yes - you'll have to stop working as soon as your BOWP is refused. You will then be out of status in Canada. If you want to remain in Canada and wait (without working) for your PR application to be processed - you'll have to apply to restore your status and also change your status to visitor.
