Has anyone tried on line payment?

[Irser]

Have any one outside Canada tried it

I know a person from Russia, who did it. She got a receipt with a bar-code via email, printed and sighned it and sent it with her docs to Sydney. She paid a processing fee, not RPRF.

Hi,

I did this for RPRF after my application went to Sydney, and have been told now that I can't send this receipt to the London VO. I noe have to get a refund (Easy) and send a bankers draft instead! Crazy if you ask me, would make this much easier for everyone. If you have not sent your application yet, then you can pay the fees online and include the receipt with your application.

So it is acceptable ?? Correct

Yes but only if its included with the full PR application that you send to Sydney. If you choose to pay online after your application has be processed by Sydney and forwarded to your VO, you will not be able to use the receipt, its crazy but I do not know why this is the case.

Sorry to hear that. It is 100 % trusted and correct method. If you check the updated PNP Checklist form, the online fee payment option has been mentioned there.

Good luck!

Hi, can you explain this more in detail? You mean Sydney has accepted this method, but Londo VO won't. Your files has been transferred to London by Sydney officer, right? I don't understand, do you need submit files again to London? Thank you in advance

Will you re-submit whole files again? I just re-submit, and when i track my package, it was delayed by Canada Customs~ I don't know why, it's just a few papers~~~

Please be careful while paying fee online, it depends on fee type & VO location. If paying any fee in VO outside canada then this option is not at all acceptable.

If you have to pay fee in canadian Visa office (inside canada) then only pay through it, however there are few senarios, in which even VO is in canada but they dont accept online payment. Like FSW applicant has to send fee in Sydney (NS), which is in canada, but they dont accept fee for them. While they accept the fee for PNP applicant.

In short, please read the application guide clearfully, they mension it clearly where online payment is acceptable or not?

====================================
I'm in this scenario. PNP packages is sent to Sydney, will they accept it or not? I checked guide, no restrictions for applicant in canada or not.

Here is from guide:

Method of payment options

You have the option of paying your fees through the Internet or at a financial institution.

Payment of fees on the Internet

To use this option, you need:

a credit card;
access to a computer with a printer;
a valid email address; and
follow these steps below.
Steps

Go to the CIC website.
Select Pay your fees.
Select Pay my fees online.

I just searched web, it said:
If you are applying at an office in Canada
Note: If you are a federal skilled worker, federal skilled tradesperson, or a federal investor, you must send payment to the Centralized Intake Office in Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada. You cannot pay online.

I'm confused. I'm Federal skilled worker transferred to PNP, so can I pay online or not?

I just sent my file to Sydney and I paid online for both application fees and RPRF in one receipt. Btw I chose New Delhi as visa office even though I am in Canada.

So, sending the package to Sydney doesn't mean "If you are applying at an office in Canada", the Visa Office selected in the form is the office I applied, correct?

clearyo , visa office is the place where PR application will be proceed, while CIO-Sydney is the office, which is responsible to do sanity check of application kit, then they will forward application to Visa Office.

However as far as fees payment is concern, we suppose to pay fee to CIO, which is in Canada, as per my best knowledge we can pay fee online (therefore also mension in guideline).

Again even FSW applicant suppose to send application to CIO, but they dont accept fee for them.

Hope now it clears.

My application kit also returned in Jan due to payment issue, then I sent it in 1 week of feb and paid fee online.

Best of luck..
