Do we need our nomination certificate VALID when we apply for BOWP? My PGWP will expire next year, and I have submitted my Non-EE PR application already. The expiration of my nomination certificate will be around the same that I will receive my AOR (given the waiting times today). I'm just curious because by the time I need to apply for BOWP (if I don't get my eCOPR before my work permit expires), my nomination will be expired already.
Hi @Miss bee and those who applied from Ontario. Helping out a friend here. When he got the nomination from OINP, he was given nomination certificate and nomination approval letter. Is it required to submit the approval letter too? The checklist only said nomination certificate so that’s what he submitted. If so, can he still webform this? Should he provide an LOE as well? He just submitted in December and waiting for AOR. Thanks
This exact situation happened to me, I sent my application on January 29th, 2025. I have not received my AOR yet, so I just sent a webform today explaining that I missed the document the first time and attached it to the webform. When they review the application the document should already be there.

Oh? Okay! Thanks for this info. When do you think is the best time to apply for BOWP? (Although I'm still hoping to get ecopr before I even resort to applying BOWP before my pgwp expires)
Those are regularly given to people that apply through a PNP stream based on a job offer. Check your nomination letter and make sure that you do not have employer restrictions. If you do, you can't apply for BOWP, you have to apply for closed work permit.

Oh I think for Alberta Opportunity Stream, I'd have to apply/request for it separately? I have no employment restrictions or whatsoever in my nomination certificate.
