hi cutemomma,
nagpasa ko ng form nung nov 2, 2010. Nareciv sa NS ung form ko nung nov 6.
Unfortunately, my application was rejected. Kc kagaya mo via credit card ako nagbayad.
Ndi na raw inaaccept ngaun ang payment via credit card. Kailangan bakk draft na.
Nareciv ko ung notification via mail last jan 12, 2010.
Pinasa ko ulit form ko nung jan 29 at nareciv nila nung feb 1.
Pro until now wala pa rin ako narereciv na AOR. waiting pa rin status ko.
Nirefund nila payment ko. May ibibigay cla sau na contact num or address for your refund request.
Ung refund ko nakuha ko na.

Hope this help.
hi triony,

i applied january 13 and CIO received it on January 20. my payment is thru credit card. until now, i still dont have an AOR and no charges on my credit card for the application fee. its sad to know they are no longer accepting payment thru credit card. :-[ thru snail mail mo ba na reciv ang notification nila na bank draft na ang preferred nila?

ano kaya dapat gawin ko? magfile ng bago without waiting for their response on my first application?
bakit ka nga pala nila nirefund? :-\

best regards!

mimi

I am dumbfounded...is there a recent announcement regarding the non-acceptance of credit card payment of the processing fee? I am worried because I sent my application last week to NS and I chose the CC payment option. I tried to search the web on CC issues but didn't find any to validate the above.

(Mimi, I don't intend to discredit you...you must be right but I am just looking for a basis)...

still hoping that they will consider our chosen payment option, though.

Hmmm baka namisunderstood lang ung letter. Kasi there are december 2009 applicants who got their AORs and paid thru credit card.

http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/for-all-those-who-have-applied-in-december2009-t29894.735.html

Hopefully they havent changed this payment method otherwise mappush nnman ung deadlines nila.

ay ndi ko alam. Nishare ko lang nangyari sa kin :) i made payment online via credit card. I used scb and it was debited immediately. Then after nga ng more than a month binalik application ko requiring bank draft. I didnt know na my mga nagsubmit last dec 2010 and their payment was ok. I received a refund kc nga nadebit sya agad sa credit card ko. I also applied in NS. Well i hope they still accept credit card payment. Kc nakakaloka talaga maghintay. Im hoping for the best. Just sharing what happened to me :) but for those who will just apply i think it would be bettet to pay via bank draft :)

BTW, this is the exact message in my appendix A indicating my mode of payment is incorrect. Im currently in singapore and i dont know if location matters.

"You have included a receipt for fees paid to a bank in canada. Unfortunately, this method of payment is not valid for Skilled Worker applications. You must submit one of the following forms of payment: certified cheque, bank draft, or international money order. To receive a refund for fees paid to bank in canada, please contact:"

yan ung exact letter nila sa kin. Pro i still hope na tumatanggap pa cla credit card. Lets just hope for the best :)

Hi Triony,

What do you mean by online payment?

What I actually did was in accomplishing the Fee Payment Form (IMM 5620), I ticked off the credit card option under No. 4 and provided the details.

Yes, I agree, let's just hope for things to work out favorably. Thanks Triony (and everyone) for sharing your circumstances. This forum is a great learning guide.

Ahh online payment. You can only use online payment sa FSW if you are in canada. Whew! Otherwise, kung outside canada ka, you should only be using the payment form to pay either thru bank draft or credit card.

Thanks Triony...I guess, we are all learning, slowly but surely. ;)

Thanks also BM for clarifying.

I got so anxious kanina that I wasn't able to understand the post of Mimi. I thought she said na credit cards are not allowed...but reading through it again, well, she wasn't saying anything of the sort. Sorry too, Mimi.
