Hi guys,
I have few questions. Please help me out. I am in my 10th month of NOC B job experience.

1. Do I need to have 52 weeks of NOC exp to get into the pool? Can I enter the pool few weeks before and then update my profile when I complete the MER of an year?

2. Can I get AOR the same day I submit my documents after getting an ITA? I have all my documents ready to be submitted.

3. In order to apply for BOWP, I would need an AOR and a valid work permit or can I just apply when I enter the pool?

Thank you all in advance for helping me out.

1. You can enter earlier. However if you receive ITA, make sure you do not submit your full application until you have at least 52 weeks of work experience.
2. I'm not sure, I'm sure someone else will confirm.
3. You need to have AOR and also a valid work permit. No, you cannot apply when you enter the pool.
