What is your country of nationality ? (Your passport).

Do you have a long travel history ? Have you worked for a government agency before or served in the military ?

You need to give us more details....
My passport is Pakistani.

Travel history is long but it is mostly me going back to Pakistan to visit my parents during summers as a student or for a period of 2/3 weeks while working after graduation. Apart from that I have traveled to US, UK and Malaysia and no where else. I have not worked for any government agency or served in a military.

I thought my Pakistani background would be an issue but I know of two other people with the same background who also applied in Nov 2016 and got their PPRs long ago.

i believe it is matter of luck. As I have never worked with government or military, and only travel to US for a week during last 10 years (other than home country China and Canada). It is still under security check. No clues, Waiting frustrated...

The best thing to do is not thinking about it. Try to do something that helps get your mind off it. I just decided to travel next week after going to a concert this Saturday. We got keep ourselves busy:)

For some December applicants, it took more than 80 days for medical to pass. I guess there is no other option but to wait.

Hello Guys,

I have a quick question: BOWP Application fee is refundable?

I applied for BOWP when my PR application was in a final review but I got my PR recently and my BOWP Application is still under process. Now I don't need BOWP. can I ask CIC to do refund fee if possible because I got PR?

Please advice me

Thanks in advance

ur suggestion is absolutely right. Indeed I have been trying to visit karakorams but I am not getting a leave from my job. And there is not much work at job from past 1 month. So every minute is getting tough on me.

Immediately raise a CSE to withdraw your BOWP application. If they accept it before you do it, you won't be refunded.
