Hello Everyone,

I applied for my wife's open work through an consultant. We received medical request followed by request to submit passport for VISA stamping but we went to Niagara falls and did flag polling as she was already in Canada. However, was surprised at the border as they said they have not received any application for Open Work Permit. They treated her as a fresh applicant and issued OWP however charged $155.00 as application fees again. This is despite of the fact that we paid $150.00 as application fees while applying through consultant.

I sent an Email to "Prod.Hpm@cic.gc.ca" two months ago. Within days, they requested to provide Credit card details to verify payment however has not responded any thing after that. I have sent couple of reminder Email but to no avail.

Anyone had similar issues before.... Please suggest
