Yes a decision was made. And the application for permanent resident is currently in progress, I passed Medical Oct 5 2017 & I'm April 28 applicant

Firstly, ask your wife how much was paid initially.

Is the decision made on the principal applicant application on ECAS and my CIC account?

If decision is made on principal applicant side, and she paid only 1040 CAD, then it is something to worry about.

I was going to say the same - if they are making a refund, does that mean the application is rejected? But doesn’t make sense that they would have already asked for medical if that was the case, and also not make contact with any concerns they have about the application... if they are indeed processing April applicants, that means they skipped a lot of people.

CIC will only refund portion of the fee if rejected and they did not receive refusal letter so I don' think its refund for 'rights to permanent resident fee'. I believe its can potentially be excess funds and or a mistake on CIC part. Just call CIC for further explanation nothing to worry about.

I agree with this, I actually came across this just now “Refunds in family-class sponsorship cases, where there are appeal rights, will be to the sponsor "on demand", after a negative appeal decision. A check to ensure that a visa has not been issued must be made with the applicable visa office abroad. The sponsor must be advised by letter that the RPRF will be refunded after appeals are exhausted and only upon written request. Withdrawal of sponsorships at any time during the process will result in the refund of the RPRF; however, the Case Processing Centre must advise the visa office abroad of the withdrawal of the sponsorship and wait for confirmation that a visa was not issued prior to processing the refund.”

when decision is made on the principal applicant side, there could still be a refund if you overpaid (or they have deemed that you have overpaid). It happened to me. Reading the fee instructions we somehow got confused about the non-accompanying dependent's fees and we ended up overpaying. So they refunded us $150 shortly after the application was transferred to Accra. Due to their changes in workflow, it's possible that they are now getting a chance to review it? @ Gattu_Milan I suggest you just provide them with the updated address as requested in the letter and see what happens.

It seems like they are working what what you sent them. It will be wonderful if they have decided to waive your fbi report.

Good day house, I am new to this forum. Applied for my wife since october last year. Still waiting on AVO, please does anyone have any other email address I can use to communicate with the immigration minister or prime minister, The one I have ( Minister@cic.gc.ca), only gives automated reply. Thanks.

@De Zee they rarely respond in person. Most people get automated response, but they do act on it. which ones and how they choose to act on, noone knows as they don't respond to most emails.
