How do I know whether the CIO is proccessing my application or not

[CANIMG]

I mailed my application with receipt. I checked the DHL, it has been received by JUSTIN in Halix.

I paid by credit card online, so there is no concept about encashed.

So when can I get the acknowlegement of my application? I searched forum, it looks will take one and half month or so.

But how long will the acknowlegement been issued?

Where are you now. I didn't know you can pay online.
You won't know until the AOR is issued.
It can take up to 60days for them to turn it around (as i read on this forum).

Your application is coming back.  You really should read the instructions about paying on line. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/fees/index.asp

Note: If you are a federal skilled worker applicant, no matter where you are applying from, you must pay by certified cheque, bank draft or money order made payable to the “Receiver General for Canada.” Payment must be in Canadian funds only. Do not enclose cash. You must send payment to the Centralized Intake Office in Sydney, Nova Scotia, Canada. See the application guide for more details.

You cannot pay online if you are applying under the Canadian Experience Class. Find out how to pay when you mail your application.

They said you may pay by certified cheque, bank draft.

[marychris]

Yes, a bank draft is most suitable

too late I guess since I have paid by CC already but thanks for your advise...

I must wait for file to return or wait for a miracle, if they accept my online payment!!!!!
