Thank you Asivad :)

I called the CIC this evening and they advised that I am okay to go ahead and use the "first AOR" to apply for BOWP. I queried whether I am able to continue working and they said yes because at that point I will be on implied status.

I will keep in touch!

Hi Eucalyptus,

First of all, wish you good luck for your application!
And yes, I did personally contact him through Gmail. He said CIC has clarified that we can use the e-AOR for applying BOWP, and he sent me a link to read. I didn't see any directed answer or confirmation on his statement, but like you said, I will just using the e-AOR to apply BOWP.

Now, someone told me, after submit the application and receive the e-AOR, wait for a bit and then apply BOWP with the e-AOR. The reason for that is, you just submitted your application and CIC has not review anything yet at that point, so you may get rejected for your BOWP application. Therefore, I will wait for a bit and then apply BOWP, and I would suggest you the same. You could apply at the end of Feb if that is possible. I probably apply BOWP in early April since my PGWP expires in May.

Do keep in touch and see how your BOWP application goes.
Good luck!

HI JacR2016.. I'm on the same situation right now. I need to apply for BOWP but according to the forum there's no 2nd AOR. How's your BOWP? What AOR did you use? The 1st AOR or the 2nd AOR under EE.. Please reply..
