Not at all. Keep calm and carry on MrsLWSN. We all agree to disagree.
I see that things were said but truthfully, you guys will eventually get past it. Do try to keep things positive in this forum. We're all here for support and information.
@ Can4Vincy You deserve it and more...
@ Jerrynyc You don't always get an AOR from POS. Normally, it is received by the applicant 3 mths after the file x-fer to the VO. I recieved mines almost 10 mths after and that's because I begged for it. Check out our s/s. Click this link http://goo.gl/QQw3i

Dear Applicant,
This refers to your application for permanent residence in Canada.
I am pleased to advise that your application appears to be ready for a final decision and visa issuance. The final decision can only be made when you have met the following requirements:
1) Right of Permanent Residence Fee
Sponsored members of the Family Class
If your sponsor has not already done so your sponsor is required to pay your Right of Permanent Residence Fee to the Case Processing Centre in Canada.
All other applicants
If you have not already done so you are required to pay your Right of Permanent Residence Fee. The fee, CAD$490.00 each for you and your accompanying spouse (if applicable), must be submitted to our office according to the enclosed instructions.
Methods of payment
Trinidad and Tobago: You can deposit the fee directly to the High Commission of Canada Account at any Scotiabank branch in Trinidad and Tobago. You will specify that you are submitting payment for the Right of Permanent Residence and you will receive a receipt indicating that. The deposit can be made in TT$ as the bank will convert the local currency at the time of the deposit. The bank will charge a small fee for this service.
Guyana: The fee can be paid at the High Commission of Canada in Guyana. Payment must be with a certified bank draft in Canadian dollars payable to the “High Commission of Canada” and must be drawn on a Canadian bank.
