My BOWP got approved today. I didn't receive any email, I just randomly logged in and saw it was approved :) Valid for 1 year. Got a ghost update for the work permit application yesterday but could see no changes when I logged in last night. Hopefully they will focus on my PR now :)

We can travel and come back into Canada with BOWP right?
Hi, may I ask how long did it take for your BOWP to be approved? I have to apply for it soon.

When is it recommended to apply for one? How far away from the expiry of the work visa? Thanks!

Not yet. Waiting. Thinking about raising a Webform. It's 4 days already.
i also got approval on 17th (Aug 09th AOR) but i don't see COPR letter attached. I only see the COPR numbers there. Will raising webform speed up the process?

Hi All.

My WP expires on 09th April and my Attorneys from the company have applied for BOWP yesterday. I also got my application approved but did not see my COPR document (only COPR number is there).

Will this cause any issue in getting BOWP? Will they say that BOWP is not needed as COPR numbers are generated (however still to get the COPR copies). Please let me know.

COPR supercedes BOWP, so if the application for the latter is in progress, it will be canceled i believe. When you become a PR, all your temporary status docs become invalidated (cos you have no need for them anymore)
