i made a paper based application for extension of my pgwp on 14 April. Initially,it was issued to my passport expiry (18 months instead of 3 years)and had a note which said passport must be renewed for extension.
However I only paid $155 online instead of $255 and included it in my paper based application.
I called the CIC they told me that the officer will just return your application after 3 months of processing just on the basis that it didn't have $255 payment.
However online applications are getting $100 request in their CIC accounts .Why cant people with paper based applications get a extra $100 request instead of just returning the application after 3 months.
AND If they had to sent the application back why didn't they send it when they checked the paper based application for completeness in April.
I even tried going to the border and extending it
NOTE:if you have a pgwp issued to your passport expiry and still have time on it for renewal .You CANT go the the border to renew it .I learned it the hard way.
