I applied on April 28 no update since but it should start processing faster or get approved rather soon due to no biometrics required for BOWP now

I had applied bowp on June 4, it was approved on 30 July
I guess he should have his Biometrics given already though they exempted the BIL for temp visas i see no change in processing i havent heard anyone saying BOWP approved who got BIL req...myself applied May 22nd and no updates since then everytime i call or raise webform saying we are processing your application will let you know once we need anytging...yada yada yada..same reply everytime...im assuming the PR processing finishes faster and when we recieve PR we cant claim for BOWP fee return even if we cancel application as they already started process and sent BIL to me..

even for pr we need biometrics in canada
Yup but for PR they are processing everytging and just holding back for sibmission of fingerprints once submitted they will approve PR whereas BOWP the process itself has no progress even they have the choice of exempting Biometrics
