Can all these people on this thread that seem to have submitted their profile and nearly completed the process in under 2 weeks (Very Strange) advise me when your work visa expires please, I ask this as my buddy and me, our visas expire in july, we both got invited to apply for CEC EE on Feb 11th, all documents, medicals and payment submitted April 2nd 2015, since then nothing has changed, we received our AOR on April 10th 2015 but we are still waiting for CIC to do something and we are getting suspicious of the system now?
If you have applied for PR, you are eligible to apply for BOWP once your WP is valid for 3 months or less, so go ahead and apply for it. Right now you are on implied status if you are in Canada, so you can keep working and we were even able to extend our Alberta Health.

4 months or less, not 3 months. Also note that you can't continue to work with certain type of work permit when you are on implied status (i.e, IEC). You need to know this permit type before asking he/she to continue working.

Where does it say that you can't work on implied status if you have an IEC visa pnpdirect? This says that you can (http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/tools/temp/work/permit/implied.asp). Can you link if you have something to support your statement? Thanks

Hey Conor,
This topic was discussed in detail here (http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/implied-statis-iec-to-bowp-t271834.0.html)


Cic reply on this topic: from that link:

Sir, Madam,

Thank you for contacting Citizenship and Immigration Canada. I am pleased to follow up on your request:

Implied Status - Temporary Residents

As a temporary resident (TR), if you send your application for an extension of your authorization to remain in Canada at the latest on the expiry date of your status, you will be considered in status as a TR until a decision is made on the application. This is known as an Implied Status*.

If you hold a work permit or a study permit, you can continue working or studying under the conditions of your previous permit if you have applied to extend your stay in Canada under the same category. However, if you have applied to extend your stay under another category, you must stop working or studying.

If you leave Canada while under implied status, you may be authorized to:

Re-enter Canada as a TR, if the Case Processing Centre (CPC) has not yet made a decision on your application to extend your work permit. Please note that you will not be permitted to work/study until you receive your new permit. You must satisfy the officer at the port of entry (POE) that you have sufficient means of support. This applies if you:
are temporary resident visa (TRV) exempt;
held a valid multiple-entry visa before leaving Canada; or
travelled only to the United States** and/or St.Pierre and Miquelon by the end of the period initially authorized for their stay or any extension to it;
Re-enter Canada as a worker/student, if the officer at the POE determines that your application to extend your work/study permit was approved by the CPC while you were outside Canada;
or
Apply for a new work/study permit at the POE provided you have the right to do so under the Regulations.
For more information on implied status, please consult the Operational Manual - Overseas Processing (OP 11) - Section 24.

* Participants in international youth exchange programs (e.g., Student Work Abroad Program (SWAP), International Experience Canada (IEC) or Working Holiday Program (WHP)) do not benefit from implied status, unless extending a work permit not initially issued for the time limit authorized by the program.

**Including its Territories and Possessions.

From the FW Manual (no longer on line)

The Temporary Foreign Worker's handbook: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resourc...w/fw01-eng.pdf

You are on IEC right now, which is a type of TFW, so this handbook applies to you.

2) Open it up to Section 5.22, "Implied Status". That says that if you have applied for a new work permit, you can keep working under the conditions of your old work permit - that is, the conditions of your IEC visa. So, let's look at the conditions of your IEC visa.

3) Open it up to Section 5.34, to the paragraph that begins with "Conditions of Work Permit", and highlight this line:

Quote:
IEC participants may not request to extend their stay under IEC unless the extension is within the original authorized period of stay as per their LOI.
It is explicitly a condition of IEC that you cannot ask for an extension. Implied Status is a type of extension - a temporary extension that is meant to bridge you between your old permit expiring, and your new one being issued.

So, for you to benefit from implied status, you need to have a work permit that can be extended. It says right there, IEC cannot be extended. Because you cannot extend IEC, you cannot benefit from implied status.
The link you provided didn't specifically mention IEC, as there are other categories in International Mobility Program.
You can’t continue to work as your BOWP application is not a work permit extension, it is for a different/new work permit as IEC can’t be extended

Hello all,

So I was requested to replace the existing passport document and upload another one on my MY CIC account. I had provided it earlier with all the stamps and observation pages. Anyway, post uploading, I'm unable to actually submit it because it follows the original submission process wherein we signed and payed the fees. In my case, once I signed and clicked submit, it takes me to an error page saying our online services are currently down. Now my guess is we are only required to upload it and CIC can access it because I've already submitted the application with the fees etc.

I hope I get more clarity by tomorrow since they've given me the 1st of June as the last date. I"ll still call them today probably..

Please share if you've faced a similar situation? Thank you. Much appreciated.

Looking at the trends it appears CIC reviews applications based on ITA received date. From what I've gathered, majority of those who received ITA in March currently have their background checks in progress. I am yet to see any April ITA's background check in progress.

That would make sense otherwise they won't be able to meet the 6 month landmark for the application that were submitted at the earliest!
