Effective January 1, 2015 at 12:01am, Citizenship processing fees for adult grant applications will increase from $300 to $530. The Right of Citizenship fee will remain $100. Applications received by CIC on or after January 1, 2015 will require the new processing fee ($530) plus the Right of Citizenship fee ($100), if applicable, for a total of $630. Incomplete applications returned prior to January 1, 2015 and received by CIC after the fee increase will require the new processing fee.
Note: If your application is not complete or is missing information, we will return it to you. Make sure you include postal codes for all Canadian and overseas addresses.

to summarize, yes your application will be returned to you because of insufficient fee.

That was quick. I am glad your time got saved.

This is very positive news! I still feel unfair to pay the new fee when it was mailed in December, but at least I don't have to waste 2-3 months, that is good news to me. If the new bill comes into effect, I will have to wait 2 more years, which I really wanted to avoid. I hope I will get my package back next week!
