Hello friends,

Can a CEC applicant apply for Bridge Open work permit before getting his/her AOR? As per the rule book, it clearly says

1. "They have received a positive eligibility decision on their PR application under one of the Economic Class programs" and
2. "CEC: the “Eligibility CEC” decision has been set to “Passed” or the Acknowledgement of Receipt letter/e-mail has been sent from CIO."

As per the above rules, we can't really apply for BOWP before we get atleast AOR. However, few of my friends told me that they heard some success stories of applicants who received their BOWP although they applied before getting their AOR.

Is it possible? Share your thoughts.

Thank you,
 
People have successfully applied for a BOWP without an AOR. Join the discussion here:

Basically, it may work, as long as the AOR is sent before they start processing your application.
 
Thank you LPS

May... that's the magic word here.
