Payment of Fees Online

[NK]

When completing the receipt of fee payment after printing it from the internet, (paid with credit card) to include with my application there is a box labeled "client id number"

Is this to be filled in by CIC, or should I know my client id already?,, If I should  know this number,, where can I find it?

I am hoping this will be my last question on this forum as I am ready to mail the application once this issue is resolved.   This site has been extremely helpful while assembling my application,, thank you to all who have helped me along the way.

All the best,,

 CIC gives you a client number when they start processing your application.  I didn't receive my client number until my husband received a letter saying he was approved as a sponsor.  We applied outside canada spousal.  It took a little over a month for him to receive this approval from the time we sent the application in.
