Hi Everyone,

I sent my application September 30th and expect them to receive early next week.
I paid by credit card, so it will show up on my account when they process payment.

Sent from the USA
Applying under NOC 4131 - FSW1

Good luck to everyone in this forum.

Cheers, Esther

Wait... I don't believe paying online with CC is an option for FSW class last I checked (Sept 24 or there abouts). Did that change?

NOC 0213
Country of residence: Kenya
Application sent: 25 Sep 2009
Delivered to CIO, Sydney, NS: 30 Sep 2009
Currently awaiting: AOR
 
My documents reached Sydney at 1st Sep 2009, when can I expect to receive AOR from Sydney?

Thanks,
 
I read from another thread that presently, it takes an average of 55 days before we get reply from the CIO.

I submitted mine Sept 24.

I was confused too! though I have paid and I guess it is possible to pay online starting 8th Sept on CIC website.
 
CHOUHANS.....you can only pay Online if you are in Canada.....


Application fees
If you are in Canada
1. You can pay your fees online
You will need:

Adobe® Acrobat Reader software
a printer
a Visa®, MasterCard® or American Express® credit card, and
a valid email address.
When you are finished, you must print a receipt of payment and include it with your application. Be sure to print the actual receipt, not the “payment confirmation form” page.

Pay my fees online

2. You can pay fees at a financial institution in Canada
If you cannot or do not want to pay online, you must get an original receipt of payment form IMM 5401 so you can pay at a financial institution (such as a bank or Western Union). This form is not available online, so you must order an original receipt by mail.

You must include a copy of this receipt when you apply.

Order a receipt of payment (IMM 5401)

Note: If you are a federal skilled worker applicant, you must send payment to the Centralized Intake Office in Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada. See the application guide for complete details.

You cannot pay online if you are applying under the Canadian Experience Class. Find out how to pay when you mail your application.

CPA2CANADA, The way I read those instructions (that you also qouted -thanks for that by the way...) is that regardless of whether you are in Canada or not, FSW can only be paid by sending payment (bank draft, CC form etc) to CIO in NS. One cannot pay online. CIO might be flexible on how they hand Chouhan's case but thats how the instructions seem to read.
 
I have applied on 18th august 2009 and received AOR BY email on 8th october
 
Guys!

I have senior confirming that the ONLINE payment will go. It seems I have become an interesting case on the forum who has paid online and waiting for AOR! If this mode of payment goes through it would be a good example & would help many others.

And if it doesn't then that answers various posts and confirms that ONLINE payment is NOT an option for FSW applicants!

I will keep the forum posted...

Thanks.
