Does anyone know if we get the receipt of the RPRF fee paid online in our email? I printed the receipt but haven't checked my statement yet for my credit card.

Yes, they do say they will respond to your email within 15 days. In reality though it takes them anywhere from 30 to 90 days to respond. (I guess they put alot of thought into the email :p)

I wanted to share my recent experience writing to CHC Islamabad.

Back in January (when I was visiting my wife), we sent an email to CIC saying that I am returning on 7th of January to Canada and it would be great that if my wife can go with me. It was a little too hopeful email I admit. However, I got auto response saying that you may expect reply after 15 days or something. So after 15 days, I didn't get any response but I got back few pictures from Honeymoon saying that they have been uploaded to the system.

Now, in mid of Jan, my wife re-sent an email to the CIC inquiring about status of application. Again, no response, and again they sent me back few more pictures from rukhsati and wedding card today (exactly 15 days later). I dont know if these have been coincidences or what. But whats bothering me is that they are sending me back just pictures and not the original documents which i sent like certificates etc.

Has this happened with anyone else?

My timeline:

Application filed: 15 March 2012
Applicaiton transfered: 15 June 2012
Additional Documentation requested and sent: April 2013
Forms + Rukhsati proof requested and sent October 2013
Remed requested and done: 10th dec and 12th dec

Thanks

Salam. Are you ordering them online? (they're much easier to be done online)
If yes, you have to order them on behalf of your husband.

https://atip-aiprp.apps.gc.ca/atip/

So first form "REQUESTER INFORMATION" is all YOUR (sponsor) info.
*Are you requesting information on your own behalf? Pick NO and choose the E-mail option as opposed to CD


2nd form: "ACT AND RECORD SELECTION"
This is all your husband's info (Principal applicant)

Last form: "ATTACH DOCUMENTS"
This is where you attached the signed consent form found here: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/atip/form-imm5744.asp
To fill this:

1) Your full name: This is your husband/principal applicant's info
2) Spouse info: This is your/sponsor's info
3) Designated individual: This is your/sponsor's info
4) Declaration Check both YES boxes
5) First box is your husband's signature
Second box is your signature
Date

Hope this helps

Thanks for your help,

I did all of that. I put in request for immigration file: permanent residence... I was a bit query on that.

When you pay your fee it requires you to make an account, right. You use the same email address and password and login. Once you log in you can see the previous payments you have made and can print the receipt or email it to your self.
I have done it that's how I know.
