Hi
I will try once more. You PAY the fee to Mississauga, assuming you are only sponsoring your husband the fee would be $75+$475+$490 a total of $1040. You don't pay any fees to Hong Kong. The list is screwed up on CICs web site, as it doesn't show the prices. If you don't want to pay on line, you will have to get DD for $1040 in Canadian funds payable in Canada. Here is the fee list
Sorry, I am really confused by this fee schedule found in the Canadian consulate of Hong Kong. I will paste the fee schedule here to you show what I am confused about. (In the end, it said to attach the cheque/money order and complete the form and include in the application > which I will send to Mississauga. So I am not paying fees to Hong Kong but will send with the application to Mississauga. I WANT to pay online but according to the fee schedule, it is not an option?)
