Non-Express Entry(PNP) Online Applications Gather here

[karl2000]

Unfortunately, IRCC has become stricter with BOWP approvals for non-Express Entry applicants, especially since late 2023. While many applicants in the past received BOWPs based solely on their AOR and provincial nomination, more recent cases—especially those processed through offices like Winnipeg—are seeing refusals unless eligibility is clearly passed in the system. This appears to be more of a shift in internal processing policy rather than an officially published new rule. The inconsistency between applicants and processing offices makes the situation even more difficult to navigate.
It’s really unfortunate that you’ve been caught in this gap, especially when other parts of your PR application are progressing. If your restoration and BOWP are still under review, it might help to submit a webform explaining your situation and highlighting the progress on your PR file. If refused again, you may need to explore alternative options such as an LMIA-based work permit, if feasible, or consider staying in maintained status (visitor) while waiting for eligibility to be confirmed.

Thanks. I uploaded a letter of explanation at the time I re-appied.

That's a brutal reason to get refused, sorry to hear that. I would suggest to seek a lawyer for opinion on whether to go for reconsideration or just apply for restoration.

Thanks. I have a lawyer and we have tried reconsideration. It didn't work.

I am having same SINP, and it shows the following status. Were you having the same status of application then it has changed?

Review of eligibility

• We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements.

Review of medical results

• You do not need a medical exam. We will send you a message if this changes.

Review of additional documents

• We have received the additional documents you provided.

Interview

• You do not need an interview. We will send you a message if this changes.

Biometrics

• We do not need your fingerprints. We will send you a message if this changes.

Final decision

• Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made.

Yes it shows the same status. Once you receive the medical result and got it passed the status will change. Other than that nothing has been changed for myself.

I've applied since Aug 30, 2024 after BIL got no update this is so frustrating . Other applicant's are getting updates but am just stuck

Medical may be waived if you are in Canada. Typically not a great idea to do upfront medicals because they expire in a year.

Thank you for your answer.

Yes, I m in Canada since 2020. Lets wait and see then.

I think Miss Bee explained you everything very clearly, You need to stop crying here every single day and respect the purpose of this group. None of us is IRCC but we all in the same situation. As someone already mentioned YOU ARE NOT SOMEONE SPECIAL.

Always try to be nice guys. It's not wrong to feel frustrated, we all are frustrated. All we can really do is to be really patient and stop being anxious. easier said than done, I know.. but we really can't do anything. Pray and manifest.

Hi @Miss bee,
I have applied for Canadian permanent residency through the non-Express Entry stream for both myself and my wife. We received the Pre-Arrival Letter (PAL), and our medical exams were completed on May 1, 2025. I plan to travel to my home country in June and return in July, while my wife will return in September.
I have the following questions regarding the next steps in my PR process:
- If I receive P1 in June, should I proceed with it immediately, or should I reply stating my travel plans and accept it after returning to Canada?
- If I receive P1 in July (after I come back), can I apply for it right away, or is it advisable to wait until my wife is back in Canada in September?
- Is it possible to proceed with P1&P2 without my wife’s presence in Canada and apply for a Permanent Resident Travel Document (PRTD) for her separately?

So today, I got medical requests for my spouse and child except myself. I am the primary applicant, I am unsure if it s just a matter of time that they will send one for me later on.

Hi guys. Just one quick question. Do I need to be physically present in Canada to replymto P1 and P2? Or just to reply to P1?

I am currently abroad visiting family so I want to have an idea of my possible return date to Canada. I applied on Aug 1 and I am still waiting for FD.

Thanks
