I just got my BOWP 2 days ago....it is really easy,only take 25 days to process.
I would not do it now if my work permit would expire in january or february,it s a waist of time and money.
We will get our PR before that,there is no way that PR will take 5 month now
Still nothing has moved for the late Dec and early Jan applicants, dunno how much time these things wwill take, do you think everything can be done in 4 months (from IP to getting PR Card)?
I am looking at November applicants on which I think almost all got their PR already except for few guys in the forum.So it's roughly 9 months maybe to 10 months.I think our case will be processed by batch and will be moving soon.Some even got IP for more than 7 months from app received so...
December 2013 applicant/forum lurker here. I am wondering: when does one officially become a permanent resident by law? When they stamp and return your passport? Or when you cross the border / meet with border official / "land"?
My timeline so far:
Application received: December 17, 2013
Med Request: Feb 3, 2014
Med Received: ? sometime in March
In process: July 29, 2014
