Random question - I now have PR (October 26) but I applied for my Bridging Open Work Permit back on July 10th. I know I no longer need it but I am curious about what happens to the application. Do they just stop processing or will I still receive it? I applied on paper so I cant view my status.
Since you’re a PR now, you’re no longer eligible to have a BOWP, neither you need one.
Your application for BOWP will not be processed further. You can also raise CSE to withdraw your application for BOWP and request a refund.

thanks for the reply. I didn't know I could request a refund. $255 could come in handy.

I was an inland applicant. (Vancouver) Came into Canada on IEC. Citizenship – New Zealand. Not sure what my NOC code is but I am a policy analyst.

This forum helped me a lot so here is my timeline:

ITA received May 16, 2018

AOR July 9

MED July 23

RCMP check requested July 24 (provided within one week)

Schedule A to be completed August 16 (did this ASAP)

No updates – ghost or otherwise until October 5th when I received a letter inviting for a landing interview on October 26. (Longest wait ever)

Attended this interview – it took about 30 min and at the end I got my stamp and COPR.

Currently awaiting PR card (47 days) processing time.

I did not call IRCC – every time I called I got frustrated with wait times. I did not order notes. I did check this forum and my email every day though

July 4 AOR (CEC). No update after medical.
Same AOR - July 4, CEC inland
Medical passed & IP2 - July 18
No update after that.
Ordered GCMS notes and it says
Eligibility - Recommend Passed
Criminality- In progress
Security- Not started

Seems inland applicantions are least priority for CIC.
