Payment of Fees after Application Submission

Hi! This is a work permit application.

I mistakenly clicked on “I am exempted to pay fees” having in mind that my WP is LMIA-exempt and my employer has paid for compliance fee. But after researching, I found out that the three are all different.

After 10 days upon application submission, I got ADR too for fee payment (since I wrote a webform why i have not received BIL) and immediately paid Bio and WP fee. IRCC acknowledged receipt and received BIL the next day.

My question is, do I have to write an LOE for selecting “I am exempted to pay fees” the document I submitted was the email from my employer paying the compliance fee with the Offer of Employment Number, which doesn’t make me fee exempt obviously. However, when I received my ADR, it was only stated that I have to pay fees and no mention of me providing proof that I am exempted from paying fees.

Will this cause great delay? My application has been in process for 3 months now. Bio and mEdical completed. Eligibility (8 weeks now) and Background (13 weeks now) are still in progress.

Please help!!!
