Hi, i have a question about bridging open work permit. My work permit will be expiring in the end of April 2018, i'm wondering should I apply it now or am i supposed to wait until Jan to send it over? I know we can only apply for the bowp within the original permit is expiring within 4months, I just don't know they are referring to the file day or the day they actually process it. The processing time now is 50 days, so if I filed ti now hopefully they can have it approved in the end of Jan. My only concern is they might say the time I filed the application is before 4 months. any suggestion is welcomed. thank you.
