Mine already got approved since first week of January since im Oct 25 bowp applicant.

But for my Aunt, she hasn't received her BOWP approval yet , her BOWP AOR- November 4.
This is her 2nd BOWP, her previous one already got expired last week and her PR application has been running for 18 months now since she's under Caregiver Pilot program.
Bit a little nervous for her since alot of people already got approval for November and hers hasn't come yet.

Was it delivered by mail? Mine just got approved. Should I expect my BOWP to be delivered by email or thru mail?
Work Permit is always a paper type of document - by mail.

Hi Guys, I need help here.
Applied for BOWP on 26th Jan 2021.
Received a mail WP-EXT only except PGWP and in letter the content is.
1. You are authorized to continue working with the same conditions (ie: employer and occupation) until 29th May 2021 or until a decision is made on your application, whichever is first.
2. You are expected to provide a COPY of your passport with your electronic application.

Questions:
1. If the decision is not been made until 29th May, can I work as an implied status after this date?
2. Do I need to submit the copy of my Passport again to them using Web form as I had already submitted the same at the time of applying for the BOWP?

It will be a great hep If you guys can help me with the answers..

Yes you can continue to work even after May 29th as it's already mentioned there " or until a decision is made" as long as you will continue to work with the same condition as per the previous WP.

When it comes to the passport, you dont have to send an electronic copy if you already provided a copy together with the application not unless you have renewed your passport .
