Right of Permanent Residence Fee

[sjp52]

So you first pay the $475 for the Applications for visas and permits, ( Principal applicant ). And $75 for the Sponsor fee, and these 2 need to be paid before you send the application in. Can you pay the $490 (Getting your permanent resident status ) at a latter date so it is not so much all at once

 

[ramkris]

yes you can pay that later when they ask for it but it will little delay process by some days until missisauga confirms to visa office they received fees

 

[sjp52]

when will they ask for it, Like maybe 14 months when the visa gets approved ?

 

[ramkris]

they will ask either b4 they ask for passport or before visa approval . most likely they ask when requesting for passport

 

[sjp52]

Roughly how long is that

Yes you can pay the right to residence fee later. When your visa office will send you a letter by email requesting your passport, they will also ask you to pay for the right to residence fees and attach the receipt. All of this will have to be sent with your passport.
When they will request your passport depends on your visa office. Sometimes, they might ask you before then through email.

So were talking 3 months or more before they ask for it. Right ?

Depends on your visa office and the immigration officer that is handling your case. Usually, this fee is requested when they are ready to issue you your COPR (which is more than 3 months time), but no one can tell it won't be sooner.

Hi if they refuse your application will they reimburse the PR Fee?

Yes, they will reimburse the RPRF.

Sounds as though it is worth getting this over with before they request pp just to be on the safe side

The fees should always be paid all in full up front to avoid delays. It's way better to wait a few days to save up the extra money for the RPRF rather than submit 3 days earlier but delayed a couple months.

You can pay it later like in a few months. It doesn't delay the process but it may slow things down if all the other things are done. What Immigration office are you applying to?
