Dear Seniors,

thanks for your input. I am still Confused with some questions

4. Should i need to print and Sign IMM5710E AND Schedule A Background/declaration form because as they say there will a option for electronic signature.

##DOES it mean, just fill the form as it and do not need to print out and not need to sign, just upload the form after filling even dont need to convert in pdf?

Dear Friends,

2. I Could not put my 10 years employment history on IMM5710E form. what should i do.
Write the additional information on either a copy of IMM5710, or by using a spreadsheet and attach it to your application as a PDF. If you make your own spreadsheet, make sure to include your name, UCI etc.

## should i upload this copy with IMM5710 UPLOAD Section or upload it in additional information Section?

thanks

It really doesn't matter.

I would probably submit it in the 'additional information' section, but either way they get the information they require.

Please let me know current processing time for online applications.
From CIC website I can figure out 53 days but In general how much time it is taking?

Guys, I have a problem. I cant seem to find my AOR email. I know I got it for sure. I am about to apply for my BOWP. I should be attaching the AOR email? Or is my Application number and my CIC client number enough for them?

Thanks.

Good day All,

I applied for BOWP on March 8 and at that time the processing time was 48 days, now its saying 53 days. So does 53 days time apply to my application as well ?

The CIC indicates the received dates of applications that they are currently processing - I would be using that as a reference.

They are currently reporting that they are working on applications received January 11 and therefore it's reasonable to assume yours will take another month.

The processing times are constantly changes and it not necessary reflects how much time it will take to process your application. See, currently the page says that on March 6 CIC was working on applications submitted on Jan 11. Those who submitted the apps on Jan 11 wasn't expecting that processing their apps would take so long (as the processing time then was much shorter). In short, CIC may start processing apps faster (or slower), who knows... Let's hope for the best.

Hi i have an urgent question! My fiance was nominated by Ainp and therefore we are applying for bridging visa. As we dont have Aor yet i assume he has to apply for closed wp and me as his spouse i can apply for OWP but the thing is when we do the online application there is nowhere to find the $100 holder fee. At the end it only comes to $310 for both of us.... PLEASE HELP as we are so confused about thiS!
Thank you so much!!!

Do you think you will get your AOR before they process your BOWP application? If so, then you will quite likely be granted your BOWP.
