It's actualy nutty how long it takes after the final decision. After all the background and eligibility checks. After going through tons of translated documents: marriage, birth, police certificates, referral letters, travel history, etc. After verifying and cross referencing all that, it's taking almost as much time to send 2 emails, create an account, issue one document and upload it. Idk what's wrong with this process but something very clearly is.

Unfortunately, that's how it always has been till now! I suppose it is a pre-requisite by now for all the officers to declare that they are going to stretch an application for however long they can. I understand that government offices are backed up with work and short staffed BUT 2 months on an average to upload 1 document? Literally the only thing left and yet here we are!

Does that mean that same officer who worked on our PR file, will be working on our BOWP/SOWP application? Didn't know that!
No - since your PR decision has been made if they assign an office for your BOWP. He will just type in your UCI and sees your PR update first and then process the BOWP. When he see's your decision on the PR app he just sends you an email that they are withdrawing the BOWP since a decision has been taken on your application

That's great to know! Thank you so much! So at this point, can it be assumed that we don't need to worry about getting refused for BOWP/SOWP and stop working (my wife and I are on maintained status now) until we get our eCoPR?

You must have got an email stating you can work for so and so until you get PR right after applying BOWP. i applied in Aug and its says i can work until feb. Why are you thinking of stopping to work?
