If your OBWP applications is received by CIC after your work permit has expired, then you don't have implied status and have to stop working immediately.

If you want to be able to start working again, your employer will need to obtain an approved LMIA and then you will have to apply for a closed work permit.

Good luck.

What matters is the date your application was received by CIC - not the date it was mailed. If you don't think your application arrived on Friday - then yes, I would apply online today.

The OP is going to have a problem anyhow, as he doesn't have the AOR for his CEC application, so not eligible for BOWP.

Waiting makes sense - but at this point mailing doesn't. Any particular reason why you didn't apply online?

May I know why you did not process this earlier? I just want to understand why people would wait close to the expiry before they will process the renewal.
