Sorry to hear that man, it sucks that they're so slow in processing applications. but as they say they, everything happens for a reason.

Good luck

Usually it takes quite some time to receive your application back. If I were you I would send a new one asap.

Agree...The only thing you need to send in original would be your IELTS / CELPIP score which you must be having a second copy of.
Rest other things are manageable.
I suggest you try to make it to 31st Dec to avoid having to apply in Express Entry.

I sent my second application on Oct, 1st and this time i changed the payment method to bank draft, but am still waiting for being cashed out, tooooooo slow

For bank draft, please visit branch, they will give you correct info. Callcentre have less info but branch can give you correct status of your drat.

For me:
Could you give me few dates, this will give me an idea about my application:
1. as you said your first application received on 16th Aug but you got it back on 29th Oct, please do you know when they sent it back ?(i am trying to calculate time in postage) ?

2. do you have any info when they tried to charge your Credit card and after how many days they sent back your application (i am trying to calculate how many days they kept file with them after rejecting the payment as well) ?

Also, when you sent a new application, please let me know did you change some forms or add any new cover letter saying reference of old application?

Hi, they tried to make the charge on Oct. 24th, but declined.
So they sent back my package on Oct. 30th, and I received on Nov. 7th.

They received my package on Aug 16th.


I updated all the date of my forms.

Sorry to hear that faming. You would think CIC could call applicants and just take payment by credit card over the phone in cases like this, or at least check to see why payment is not going through. A 2 minute phone call could save applicants months of work and waiting. It's very unreasonable to just send the thing back to the applicant after all the effort that goes into preparing them

That why they give you different options of payments. It is your choice. If you choose Credit Card it is your responsibility to keep track of your spending so the amount for ECE application is always available. With CC there is always a risk of compromising a card or declining payment. They don't care and they don't want to waste even 2 min to check your CC number or balance with you
