Hi @rajneesh1987 !I spoke with CIC agent and he has mentioned that most likely they will take 155 dollars free from right of permanent residence fee ($490) and will refund back the remaining amount and i can pay 490 dollars when they will ask for it.
On the safer side i also paid OWP fee: 155 CAD and submitted the receipt by Web Form with the following explaination letter:
Dear Officer,
My name is XXXXXX. I am in Canada on Visitor Visa and married to a Canadian Citizen.
My husband has applied for my sponsorship under Spouse or Common Law Partner in Canada Class which includes my applications for Permanent Residence and Open work permit in one package and received by CPC-Mississauga, P.O Box 5040, Station B, Mississauga, Ontario, L5A 3A4 on August 8, 2018.
While paying application fee for open work permit, I paid only for Open work permit holder (100 CAD) but forgot to pay Work permit fee (155 CAD).
I am afraid that due to insufficient funds my application might be returned so I am paying Work permit fee (155 CAD) now.
Payment receipt is attached with this letter.
I will appreciate if you can attach this fee receipt with my application for open work permit.
Thank you for your understanding.
You can reach me on cell: XXXXX or email: XXXXXX
Yours Sincerely,
XXXXXXX
First Name: XXXX
Last Name: XXXXX
Nationality: XXXXX
Indian Passport No: XXXXXX
Address: XXXXX
Hopefully it works.
Yea no way they will do that as it will be confusing. Whoever told you that does not know what they were saying im sorry. CIC does not work that way i know for sure if you pay extra they will send a cheque back for the extra payment made but never will they deduct it from some other fees you paid upfront.Hi @rajneesh1987 !
I had no idea that they could deduce OWP fee from the PR fees, I have seen people get app returned.
Hope your app is complete now.

Im at a lost here my friend, you said you submitted august 7 and you already have the aor right? Then you paid incomplete fees through web yesterday. They did not return your application? And now you got your file number?Yesterday submitted work permit fee using Web Form. Today got the email from CIC about receiving my sponsorship application. Successfully linked OWP and PR application online.
File received by CIC: 7th August 2018
As i already have Application file number for open work permit, can they return it for insufficient funds in case they do not accept the payment receipt submitted through Web Form
Hi @rajneesh1987 in your first post here you said that you've sent your app Aug 3rd and they received your app Aug 8th. If so, they are working fast, that's great! We should be the next.Im at a lost here my friend, you said you submitted august 7 and you already have the aor right? Then you paid incomplete fees through web yesterday.
