Do you know when they usually announce the re-open, do they do that the same day? if so , how do you guys prepare an up to date bank statement for POF to be ready upon re-open. because in my bank they sometimes require 1 working day to prepare the statement.
No, they do not open same day. They open when they are ready to process next batch of applications, but likely days (not necessarily) are thursday/friday 10 am Regina time.
It may be a good idea to keep the documents updated every first week of the month and just hit submit when it opens. Just ensure the POF docs are current till latest completed month. If they need more later versions, they will ask for it.
The site response is also slower (but stable) after it opens, so better to upload all possible docs before it opens.
Good Luck !
