RPRF In Advance Online ??

[RajGlen]

Application sent: 4th Dec 2014
Application Received: 11th Dec 2013
AOR Received: 3rd Feb 2014
PCC Mailed: 6th June 2014
Medical Requested: 2nd July 2014
Medical Completed: 2nd Aug 2014
Outstanding document: Japanese PA Police Clearence Certificate due by 7th Oct 2014.

I have a pending document due to CPC-Ottawa and have already applied for it with the japanese consulate. In the meanwhile, my existing visa/WP is expiring by 31st Oct 2014. Hence, i have applied for an online BOWP on 20th Aug 2014.

Query: Can i pay my RPRF in advance? If Yes, can we pay it online in the CIC Online Payment site?

I am thinking of paying RPRF in advance to save processing time for the COPR.

Please advice at the earliest.

To make an upfront payment for the RPRF, go to
> https://eservices.cic.gc.ca/epay/welcome.do?lang=en.

Then select IMMIGRATION as the type of service and click on RIGHT OF PERMANENT RESIDENCE FEE.

Principal applicants (with some exceptions) and spouses and common-law partners coming with them to Canada must pay this fee. Applicants must pay this fee before CIC issues the permanent resident visa or before the applicant becomes a permanent resident in Canada.

These people do not have to pay this fee:

dependent children of a principal applicant or sponsor, a child to be adopted, or an orphaned brother, sister, niece, nephew or grandchild; and
protected persons, including Convention refugees.

After paying the fee, you will be issued a receipt, which you can either fill out on your computer or print, fill out and scan - then email to CIC for further processing.

Send the receipt to: CPCO-Cost-recovery.CTDO-Recouvrement-frais@cic.gc.ca or CPPO-Cost-Recovery@cic.gc.ca
and make sure to include all required information in the subject line. More information HERE.
