A Visa Card -whatever type, is a Visa Electron Card... so it perfectly works like a Standard Visa Credit Card. All such Visa, Mastercard, Amex etc. are 'usable' for paying anything 'online'. Thus, the fees of CIC too.

Relax & go ahead with your Visa Debit Card.

1. Till now I have 'never' been asked for any security code anywhere in the world, while using my credit cards.
2. And I am using these since 16yrs now.
3. Moreover, in the Credit Card form of the CIC, there's no place to mention that as well -in I'm not mistaken.

You can check in your transaction system and if i am not wrong you have given the credit card details in the payment form so how come you have paid it online ??

When i say transaction means account statement which your boss received on monthly basis and if he has a net banking then you can check the transaction online.

I think we are misunderstanding here. Did you put the credit card details on the payment form when you submitted the forms or did you make the payment online which is unlikely to me ?

Saki

Hi

If your boss has filled in the Cerdit Card payment form on your bahalf, ask him to provide you with a card transaction statement which he can obtain from his card issuer/bank/ATM. Only the card holder can obtain this, in your case your boss. If the Canadian High Commission has already debited the money from the card, this will be shown on the transaction reports. As Saki has already mentioned, with most banks it is possible to look at the transaction records online, using internet banking. You can ask your boss to look at his card/bank account statement online and perhaps to get a print out of this.

If you think you or your boss will feel embarrased at your request, you can always wait for the CHC to get back to you. Or you can write to the CHC and ask them if they have received this.

if you are applying as fsw, and sent the application to ns, then you should only fill up the payment form included in the applcaition pack, there is no option for online payment for us...

this is noted on the website;
New:
1) All applicants in the Federal Skilled Worker Class, must submit their initial application to the Centralized Intake Office (CIO) in Canada as of April 1, 2009.

2) Applicants who apply on or after September 08, 2009, are now able to pay with a credit card (Visa, MasterCard, American Express). All applicants need to complete the Fee Payment Form – Application for Permanent Residence – Federal Skilled Worker (IMM 5620), regardless of the chosen method of payment.

Note: Applications received prior to September 8, 2009, do not require the fee payment form (IMM 5620).

from: www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/skilled.asp

...You might want to send in a letter of explanation to CIC for refund, sending over proof of payment(your boss' card statement), then you might also want to rectify your application
