Im thinking to pay RPRF upfront? What are the steps? Just pay online and send the receipt to CIC?
From Toby's excellent post (linked in my signature).
To make an upfront payment for the RPRF, go to
> https://eservices.cic.gc.ca/epay/welcome.do?lang=en.
Then select IMMIGRATION as the type of service and click on RIGHT OF PERMANENT RESIDENCE FEE.
Principal applicants (with some exceptions) and spouses and common-law partners coming with them to Canada must pay this fee. Applicants must pay this fee before CIC issues the permanent resident visa or before the applicant becomes a permanent resident in Canada.
These people do not have to pay this fee:
dependent children of a principal applicant or sponsor, a child to be adopted, or an orphaned brother, sister, niece, nephew or grandchild; and
protected persons, including Convention refugees.

After paying the fee, you will be issued a receipt, which you can either fill out on your computer or print, fill out and scan - then email to CIC for further processing.
Send the receipt to: CPCO-Cost-recovery.CTDO-Recouvrement-frais@cic.gc.ca or CPPO-Cost-Recovery@cic.gc.ca
and make sure to include all required information in the subject line. More information HERE.
