Don't spread panic here.
I suppose your Visa Office is CPP-Ottawa? If you're in Canada now - that's the only option.
The e-mail you've got is just usual AOR and you should be happy because of that
I'm not spread panic here. The email I got was not AOR. I got my AOR at Jan 25th, 2013. My ECAS shows "in process" now. I am a dec, 2012 applicant. All my friend who applied before December 2012 did not receive this email. However, all the applicants after Dec 2012 got the same email. Here is a copy.
This refers to your application for Permanent Residence in Canada. Your file has been transferred to the Case Processing Pilot in Ottawa for further review.
We wish to remind you at this time that if your Right of Permanent Residence Fee (RPRF) is outstanding, you must pay this fee before a permanent resident visa can be issued. The RPRF will be refunded if the application is refused, if you withdraw your application or if you choose not to use your visa.
If you delay the payment of the RPRF, your security or medical results may expire, which would delay the issuance of your visas. We therefore encourage you to pay the RPRF as soon as possible, by following these steps:
· Go to the website:
· Read the instructions on each page, and click “Continue” to proceed
· Select the “Immigration” link, followed by “Right of Permanent Residence Fee”
· You must pay this fee once for yourself as principal applicant
· You must also pay this fee for your accompanying spouse or common law partner, if you have one
· Enter the number of fee payments (1 or 2) in the box beside the fee of $490
· Click “Submit”
· Proceed to pay your fees by selecting “Pay” and then follow the instructions to pay with a credit card
Once the payment process is complete, the web site will display your official receipt in PDF format.
You must send the receipt to CPP-O. For fastest service, please attach it to an email and send it to the address CPPO-Cost-Recovery@cic.gc.ca .
Please note: Passports for you and all accompanying family members must be valid at the time of visa issuance. If your passports have expired or will be expiring within the next 6 months, we encourage you to apply for new passports as soon as possible. This may delay the issuance of your visas.
Sincerely,
Citizenship & Immigration Canada
