You mean the Right of Permanent Resident Fee (landing fee) $490 Can. You must pay this before CHC will issue the visa, the processing office should send a letter stating the applicant must submit their passport and the "Landing" fee before the COPR (visa) will be issued. This is called the passport request letter. Your sponsor can pay the fee on-line in Canada, and send a copy of the receipt to Vienna.

Landing fee? Excuse me, but did I miss something? I paid about $1300 to sponsor my wife and her 7 year old daughter from Colombia. I thought it covered the applications and fees for PR. Now is there another "landing fee" of almost $500? I hope immigracion is not about "head taxes" I already realize it is almost imposible for many people from many countries to even visit Canada unless they are very wealthy....just surprized if I have to come up with another "landing" charge.

Let me guess for your application, you paid, $550 for your spouse, $150 for her daughter and $490 for the wife's Right of PR Fee, total $1190. The OP didn't pay the RPRF upfront, so the CIC was requesting it now.

ONE QUESTION FOR HERO MEMBERS,

IF CIC REQUESTING PATMENT FOR RPRF, DOES MEAN THAT MADE FINAL DECISION.

THANK YOU

TY PMM, I was hoping that was the situation. I know a person can pay extra for sponsorship at the beginning of the process, or wait till later, and probably wait a few extra months. I thought it said something about a fee for a PR card, I wasn't sure that was called a "landing fee"..thanx for the clarification

We have received PR request to pay $490 on Feb.26, but didn't received letter of passport request which should go with PR payment or shouldn't? We did pay fee on March 3. and now waiting again. Anybody knows more about this? Why they asked just to pay fee, but didn't send letter yet requesting passport?Is this different from office to office? We are going thorough Vienna. Anybody knows more about this?

1. Pay the fee, don't send the passports until requested.

Please let me answer. The question is very simple, when the officer after reviewing the documents, ask for payment for the lending fee, does it mean that it brought the final decision on the case or not.



THANKS TO ANSWER

 

[mesecdana123]

Guess what! We were waiting for passport request, but instead they ask my husband to submit additional documents about his bussiness trip back in 2004. Why would they ask first to pay landing fee, but one month later ask for more documents? We are scared, because he didn't save tickets or old passport. But he can provide a letter about trip. Could be that enough proof? Fee request came from Vienna office, but this letter from Belgrade cosulat where he had interview, so confussing...

PMM please answer, or any body who knows what does this news mean?
