We (my wife) also had her OWP returned due to insufficient fees paid. This was during the 1st week of October I believe. It was our error (we underpaid by $100). They sent instructions saying to send the proof of payment along with the whole application form to the Edmonton office. Did you...

I haven't checked inland threads from before the pandemic (late 2019), but does anyone know if they were they mailing forms back for missing the postal codes on IMM 5406 back then too? We (March inland applicants) are the first batch of people that I've seen are having their forms returned for...

I think you are correct about not having to pay the biometrics fee twice, so for you it should be $255. However I just included the biometrics fee in my resubmission of this form because they told me to provide proof of payment and send it to the Edmonton office separately. They refund you if...

Thanks for sharing this, Jpn. My wife and I are pondering what action to take in light of this. On the one hand, they sent the OWP back already and I don't know if it's customary for them to send multiple pieces of the application back at different times (does anyone reading this know?). But on...

Thanks for confirming Lacey. Makes me feel a slightly more "out of the woods" now. We actually didn't put our (Canadian) postal codes on that 5406 form, but it's on several other sponsor/PA forms, so I'm hoping that they're not going to mail it back (plus they put the postal code on the envelope...

Sorry, this really sucks. The powers that be here pay a lot of lip service to a "compassionate immigration system". This needs to start in how the small details of the immigration process are handled and not just when there is a government photo op to be had. Just wondering - did they also send...

That's what I'm wondering. I thought that that was part of what they do when they review an application -- use judgment to fill in minor gaps that may be missing. Otherwise what's the point in having a human manually review an application and not just have the whole process automated? I...

Just a general question. If someone is missing a postal code on this form for a Canadian address, why can't they (IRCC) look at any of the other forms (such as eimm5669) to see what the postal code is? It's easy to find out what this information is through a minimal amount of digging since this...

Yeah, I'm certain that I underpaid the OWP by $100 the first time around. The frustrating thing is that they just sent the OWP back saying that "insufficient fees were provided". They didn't specify a difference that I have to pay. So it's like the $240 I paid for it the first time is just down...

Thanks Mice. We submitted the PR + OWP in early March. They just sent back the OWP, so I'm hoping that means that everything with the PR application (including the fee) is fine

Bumping this thread for any advice.. thanks

Hi everyone. My wife unfortunately got her OWP sent back yesterday (we are inland + OWP applicants). They sent the OWP back with a letter saying that the issue was "Insufficient processing fees were provided with your application." The letter also says to resubmit the paper application directly...

Did they mail it back to you after they had sent the letter noting that they had received the application and would check it for completeness? Sending applications back last year when things were normal would be less of a punch in the gut than it would be doing it to people now, after we have...

March 4th applicant here. I also received the same email as others above, this afternoon. I was also wondering whether this is the AOR. They are technically acknowledging receipt of the application in the very first line of the letter and noting that it's in que for processing, so I would...

Thanks, I may try going the web form route... Whole process is nerve-wracking without the covid delays on top of everything.

Bumping this thread, if anyone knows... thanks

When my wife and I submitted our inland spousal sponsorship application, we had mistakenly put her temporary resident's visa number in a couple of boxes where it asks you to put your temporary resident permit number. She has a TRV and not a TRP, but at the time we messed up and didn't realize...

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/news/notices/biometrics-exemption-temporary-residents.html It mentions in the above link not to pay the biometric fee even if prompted. The implication in what they said is that there is a way to avoid paying it in the first place. I...

So my wife and I are in the process of applying online for a visitor record for her. She is in Canada on a TRV and her status expires next week. The biometric fee requirement has been waived from inside Canada, however I don't see anywhere on the application/fee payment page an option to...

I realized now that we made a (hopefully small) mistake on my wife's open work permit application. On the form where it says "If applicable, provide the most recent document number of the work permit, study permit, or temporary resident permit issued to you." we were supposed to leave this...
