Currently, work permits are being processed within shorter timelines as a result of the waiving of the requirement to send an official acknowledgement of receipt letter to applicants.

 

Applicants may now submit their bridging open work permit (BOWP) at the same time as their application for permanent residence. Once the completeness check has been performed, the application for a BOWP will be processed. BOWP applications received before the completeness checks have been performed will be held until they are ready to be processed.

The Employer Portal was launched on October 26, 2015, replacing the email submission method of the Offer of Employment to a Foreign National exempt from the Labour Market Impact Assessment (LMIA) form [IMM 5802].

 

However, due to a reported problem, the Department has re-enabled the use of the email submission for authorized employers. These processing instructions explain what actions to take in regards to the offer of employment information.
