Hi AEE & All,

As you guys have experience I want to know is it better to apply TRV at the same time when we are applying for BOWP online because there is option available for TRV. ??

hey do u know if someone has a visitor permit/record and is in canada already where do they apply to get a temporary resident visa? my mom has a visitor record and needs to travel outside canada. what is the process? does she apply online thru cic website?
Well, I am not sure about that but when I was filling that form there was a question are you applying from Canada or outside Canada.... best way to call CIC...

No till now it is not activated, I dont know what they are doing wit my passport when the process is completed. When did u apply urs and are you waiting for your passport
have you got any notification saying that you have new message waiting or something about your application?? cuz I noticed that I used to get these emails but I never had any unread message in my CIC account, so I realized every time there was some kind of activity on my application that automated system used to notify me.

You cannot submit TRV without getting BOWP, first you need to apply BOWP and once you receive your work permit then only you have to submit TRV. Also when you're submitting your TRV online it will ask you to submit your latest renewed work permit

It is 21 days plus mailing time. Seems to me that the approve it and then send it a couple days after. Mine got approved march 6 but my tracking was only activated last night and received my package this morning.
