Hello Official pain in the butt here,

Just wanted to know what was a better(easier) way to pay these fees, online or at the bank. Do i need any extra forms to pay online or at the bank from overseas...if so can someone include the link. Many thanks!!!!

from what i remember from the guides if u r outside Canada the only way is online....it's a straightforward process; if u have bought things online before u won't have any issue :) they will send u the receipt by email (the receipt has a barcode too)...u print it and fill in the sponsor details and that's it...

the link is this: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/fees/index.asp
 
Yes, you can pay only online or a canadian bank. Here the link to the page that explains online payment: https://eservicesak.cic.gc.ca/epay/welcome.do?lang=en

You can do either, but it's faster if you do it online at http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/fees/index.asp (you get receipt immediately vs. having to wait for it to get mailed if you pay at the bank).

Thank You all I will be paying online...thanks again,, you guys are really helpful!

You are welcome ... and thanks for the follow-up! I've given you a "Good" (just below username - you may not have the ability until a few posts for now) :)
 
When we paid at the bank we had to get a special receipt form. You can either get these by ordering (too slow) or, if you are in a city with a university, their international office has stacks of them and you can get a few copies for free. You just have to go in and ask at their reception desk. I know the University of Ottawa and Carleton U has them readily available.
