Hi. Is it really necessary to fill in, scan and email? I just emailed the official recipet the way I got it which had the payment info and my name on it. When we send it we attach it to an email with all our application information. How can this be confused or lost?
I don't think we have to fill, scan, and email (we have no right to edit official receipt, no ref, but it's my understanding) As they said, they only need receipt which has reference # (Barcode). They also mentioned that the name is not necessarily applicant's name. It is the name of credit card holder. If someone using someone's credit card, then credit card holder's name is appeared.

Also, we had to register before we pay, so it will be fine. Certainly after few weeks, one can call CIC and asks whether RPRF payment is received or not.

Hope this helps you.

Hi guys,
Is there anyone who got RPRF and haven't got MR for several days or weeks? Or anyone was in similar situation, how long did it take to get MR?

Thanks.

Dear all,

Finally, I got the PRPF email from Hongkong office, however, it requested me to submit all the documents to Hongkong office by MAIL or COURVIER. It didn't mention the option of submitting by email at all.

My questions are:
1. Can I still send it by email?
2. Is it normal to send it to Visa office instad of CIC headquarter?

Dear XXX:

This is in reference to your application for permanent residence in Canada as a member of the Federal Skilled Worker class. In order to prepare your application for further processing, the following documentation must be received by our office within 30 days from the date of this letter:

For you, the principal applicant, and any dependants 18 and over, whether accompanying you to Canada or not (if applicable):

Instructions on how to obtain police certificates for specific countries may be found by clicking here. (If you have previously resided in Canada, you will be contacted later if an RCMP certificate is required).
If you reside in the People’s Republic of China or Taiwan: Hukou (household register) – must be accompanied by a notarized translation into either English or French. Translation must be part of the notarized booklet (if not already submitted)
Payment of the Right of Permanent Residence Fee (RPRF) for you and your spouse (if applicable), if not already paid. We strongly encourage you to pay your fees online and to submit a copy of your receipt to our office. For information regarding fees, click here.
For any dependent children: notarized copy of the original hospital birth certificate. For children born in the People’s Republic of China: You must submit a notarized copy of the certificate issued by the PRC Ministry of Health (If this is not available, you must submit an explanation as to why this document cannot be submitted).

Hi All,

I have also got "We started processing your application on May 11"
However, I have not received anything yet. Is not it strange?

Documents received CIO: November 24th
File number received: February 14th.
A note added May 11, 2015 indicates that the Right of Permanent Residence Fee will be requested.
Background verifications are in process.
By the way, I have not sent police certificate yet, and CPC-O have not asked me yet.
