02 Oct 2014 - date they receive my application
AOR Received.
09-Feb-2015
did anyone applied recently for BOWP or any WP online?
what are current/real processing times?!

My expires FEB 8 and I'm waiting for AOR...looking on the current prcessing times I should get AOR FEB 16-19.
I think to apply online for BOWP because I doubt that they will proceess my BOWP online application before I will get AOR so in 12days?:)
 
I am in the same situation as yours, my visa expires in March and I hope I'll get my AOR soon... According to what I've read in this forum, the bowp takes from 30 to 40 days to be processed online, and 60ish days of you send the paper application.
So I would say you're safe to ask for it know, just add a letter explaining that you are waiting for your AOR (the time they process it they should have your AOR on their system).
But maybe some other members could correct me if I'm wrong!
I need to start looking at these papers soon, don't want to screw it...
 
Thanks!
yes I also read other cases. but everyone were applying by paper...I couldn't find approx processing for online applications.

I think I will take a risk and I will apply online on friday. It should be ok - AOR should be before anyone will start looking at my application.
I also read that one guy got WP just for 2 months to wait for AOR and to then apply one more time for BOWP:)
so I think me and also you would be fine ! :)
good luck
 
Good luck to you too! I hope we won't wait for weeks and weeks for the AOR... Are you an October applicant as well?
 
hehe I just checked and my visa expires Feb 7 not Feb 8th :D good that I checked it today:)
 
Hi

Another question regarding BOWP processing time - on the processing page in the CIC website, there is two columns one for the average processing time and the other column is for working on submission submitted on this date i.e. Dec 31 2014: my question is does the average processing time related to when i submitted my application or is average processing time for the submission submitted on this date??

Please advise

Thanks
