Like I mentioned, it happened to me. Nowhere mentioned and then refusal!
You can submit only before the decision is made so if I were you, I would do it ASAP! Otherwise they will refuse you
In fact, CIC mentioned it.
To be eligible for a BOWP, foreign nationals must
be currently in Canada;
have valid status on a work permit that is due to expire within the next four months;
be the principal applicant on an APR under the FSWC, the CEC, the FSTC, the PNC (see note below), or one of the two caregiver classes;
have completed one of the following APR stages:
their electronic application for permanent residence (e‑APR) submitted under Express Entry has passed the R10 completeness check; or
they have received a positive eligibility assessment on their paper APR submitted by mail under one of the economic classes above;
have applied for an open work permit;
have paid the work permit processing fee and the open work permit holder fee; and
have provided, as applicable, evidence (e.g., nomination certificate) that their provincial nomination is unrestricted.
HOWEVER, just submit it through case specific enquiry. It should be fine.
