BOWP mail only?
 

Hi guys,

Just about to apply for my second Bridging open work permit, current one expires 20th Aug, applied for PR through CEC June 27 2014, I've done medicals in March but no further update. With the processing times for temporary work permits increasing to 76 days, I'm worried about the inevitable.

I'm just checking that there hasn't been any changes to it since I last applied? Well other than the increase in fee? I have all the forms ready to upload but seems like they're having issues on the wizard and myCIC. I completed the wizard last night got halfway through uploading files and they all vanished. Now retrying the online wizard fails at about the 5th page of questions, anyone else having this problem?

After calling the ever so helpful call centre, I was informed that its now not possible to apply for a BOWP online and I must send it by post, she sent me an 'application package' by email - a bunch of useless links.

Obviously best case I get PR before BOWP is approved, however just trying to figure out whether to send all the info I already had for the online application in the post would be sufficient?

Thanks for any help.
