Hi, did you receive a response for submitting the webform? Can you please us know the reply?

I got a reply a few days later confirming receipt of the document I provided and saying that it will be forwarded to the responsible office for consideration. Looked like a generic email.

Another confusion.

CONTEXT: I paid for my Express Entry FSW application on 20 EDT 29th April (as stated on the receipt) which is before 9am EDT 30th April when fee was increased. But my application acknowledgment and the dashboard just says application submitted on 30th April 2020.

I just received a request letter saying we need to pay the difference. I'm super confused.

QUESTION #1: Should I pay the difference? Which is $412.17 (570 CAD) for me and my spouse? Or should I upload the old receipt and explain that I paid on 29th not 30th?

QUESTIONS #2: If I pay, the additional payment is meant to be paid via https://eservices.cic.gc.ca/epay/order.do?category=10115&lang=en link. When I try to login there it says I don't have an account. Does my EE account not work here? Should I create a new account here for payment with the same email ID and download the receipt and upload to my original account?

I made the same mistake yesterday. I paid the old fee and sent it off not realizing their actual “fee wizard” is wrong. I haven’t gotten an AOR yet. How will they know which application the document is for if I don’t have an application or reference #?

if you're paying the extra after submitting your application, they can connect the receipt to your app via the identity fields of the webform like your EE number and UCI number that you enter when you fill it out and attach the receipt.

if you're paying the extra before submitting, you can attach the receipt in the list of docs.

Thanks! I paid it yesterday. I’ll submit a web form with the document. Hope all is ok. I don’t want it to get returned.
 
HI I paid the fees online the full amount for me and my husband on april 28th and then sent the application on May 1st do i have to pay the difference?
 
They sent everyone a letter to those who needed to pay the extra fee. Remember what matters is when you submitted your app not when you paid.
