Hi @legalfalcon , I have received my eCOPR before BOWP is approved (was in pending status since last 3+ months), I remember in some thread you mentioned that I can claim the BOWP money back but unfortunately I could not able to search that thread in this forum.

Can you please help me with the steps I need to follow for the same?
Only if the application has not yet started processing. See https://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/fees/refund.asp

After we start processing your application, only these fees can be refunded

  • the right of permanent residence fee (RPRF)
  • the right of citizenship fee
  • the open work permit holder fee (for Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) exempt workers only)
  • the employer compliance fee (refunded to the employer)
International Experience Canada (IEC) fees (See refunds for IEC)

@legalfalcon Would applications for work permits or Permanent Residency to other countries outside Canada affect the process of my Canadian application?
There have no bearing on the processing of your application with IRCC. However, if you move to another country, you should inform IRCC of the same.

I requested my GCMS notes for the second time today after 2 months of requesting it, but this second time I wasn't charged the $5 fee. Is it normal?

Congratulations. ☺ I assume you achieved it this fast as you are an inland applicant. Same is not the case with us, the outlanders.
