As previous said you often have to warn your bank if a charge is atypical. There is fraud protection. You will also have to speak to your bank before moving to Canada.

You usually need to call your bank or credit card country to warn them you are making a purchase in Canada or the system thinks that there is a fraudulent purchase.
Thank you. I have called my bank and they said my card is not blocked that i should try it again. I have tried more than 10 times now still say declined

I’m having same issue since yesterday, tried paying using 2 different USD cards but transaction declined severally. Called my banks to report 6 times and they said my card is all fine with no restrictions and activated for e-commerce and online payment. The baa as nk suggested talking to the merchant which is CIC.

How did you resolve this when it happened to you?

I did not resolve. Also I send report about that issue. They cannot solve it and published news on their main page in gckey page. But I used credit card to open to purchase. Bank card was not used in my case. I suggest you to use credit card.

I am currently in the process of applying for a study permit through the IRCC portal from Ghana. I have completed all the necessary forms and documentation required for the application.

However, I am encountering an issue when attempting to pay the application fee. Despite trying with multiple cards, the payment continues to decline. I have already contacted my bank, and they have assured me that there are no issues with my account or cards that would prevent the transaction from going through. Please can anyone help?

Maybe the system thinks your African Visa card is dodgy? A lot of scams originate from there
