I have submitted my PR application and have my AOR, my work permit runs out on April 11. I have done this in a new profile which does not show my current work permit. I now want to apply for a BOWP. Where do I submit the application for BOWP?
I cannot find my current work permit in my current profile, it is likely in a profile my immigration lawyer had created for me years ago. Do I need to reactivate that?
Also, it seems my employer needs to file an offer of employment in the employer portal before I can apply for the BOWP but they also cannot find the logins (same immigration lawyer has lost them), I have called Immigration Canada to get this sorted but don't get connected to an officer. I have submitted a question to the webform but have not heard back.
I am really thankful for any suggestions.

I'm not sure about your scenario. Here is my scenario. Submitted paper application for work permit couple of years ago. Immigration consultant applied my PR from his profile and he sent me AOR. I applied for BOWP from my profile( newly created) and it is approved. So I don't think you need to worry about old work permit login. But confirm with IRCC or experts here.

Thanks for the feedback! Just to confirm, your employer needed to submit an offer of employment in the employer portal?

Ok so you are confused. You can make new account on Gckey and submit application for BOWP. Your employer don’t haven’t to submit offer of employment in employer portal. It’s only for those who are applying for employer specific work permit which is closed work permit.
If you applied for permanent residency using the
Express Entry system, you can apply for the BOWP as soon as you receive your Acknowledgment of Receipt (AoR) (automatically received on your EE account after submission of your application). You will need to
add this letter as a supporting document for your BOWP application.

Thank you so much for the clarification! Can I also use the account on GCKey that I have applied for PR with to apply for BOWP or do I need a new account?

Yes you can use same account. You don’t have to get new Gckey.

So I logged into my profile and go to 'Start an application' and press 'Apply to come to Canada'. Issue is, I cannot find my personal reference code. Do you know where I can locate this code?

No select
I do not have a Personal Reference Code
If you do not have a personal reference code, you may answer a series of questions to find out if you are eligible to apply for a visa and/or permit, apply for Express Entry, and begin an online application.
If you begin your application after you have logged into your account, you will not receive a personal reference code, as the system will save your document checklist right into your account.

Thank you so much for guiding me here!!! I'm beyond grateful. So, I tried that. Pressed 'Visitor visa, study and/or work permit' and went through the questionnaire but just didn't get to the point where I can apply for BOWP. In the pull down 'How long are you planning to stay in Canada?' I chose 'Permanently', is that maybe the wrong selection?

Choose more than 6 months.

Hi all,
Please I need your help, I applied for Express Entry this month and I’d like to apply for BOWP because my PGWP will be expired soon .My question is Do I need to write an explanation letter ? (Because in this application I have my husband and my son)
Or just upload the confirmation letter of my express entry application!
Thank you
It never hurts to write a LOE to explain your situation.
