They want you to spend that $255 for that BOWP. Easy money for them, its such a common sense solution to provide implied status bridge permit when your application is submitted and under review but IRCC sees even that as a money making machine from immigrants..as if the taxes weren't enough to drain the blood out of everyonei think they dont care work permit expire time
I understand how you feel; I’m in the same situation, waiting just like you. I don’t think IRCC prioritizes applications based on family ties, CEC, work permit/visitor status, or the number of applications submitted. It seems they allocate profiles to specific teams based on the stream or type, and approvals depend on each team’s working style. Unfortunately, it’s possible that our profile ended up with a slower-moving team - who knows?
