hi guys,

what are your suggestions about BOWP. i am thinking to apply bowp, my pgwp is expiring on may 2026. just because i had a previous cec refusal due to my foreign job experience letter. ircc was not satisfied that experience letter (because only 3-4 job duties were written in short sentences). I arranged a new detailed job letter from previous employer and applied with an ircc agent this time.

Thanks.. How would you know the eligiblity has started? In the site it says "We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements" and for medicals it says "November 18, 2025 You passed the medical exam." its tomorrow.. Im confused.

For the medical, IRCC uses the UTC time zone which is most likely already on November 18, 2025. So, just accept that your medical is now passed. As per eligibility, i will let others comment...i don't have an experience yet..lol
