Unfortunately it looks like they always return the application when the mistake is a missing signature or fees, even if you correct it using the webform. I did a deep research in this forum because I made a mistake in one of the forms and that's my conclusion. Sorry for the bad news, but you can always try the webform, or just wait for the application to return and then resubmit it.

A lot of people accidentally pay 100$ instead of the 255, its a very common mistake.
Your best bet is that CRA will only send back your OWP package instead of both PR and OWP. This happened to me and it saved me a lot of hassle. They include a letter saying what you have done wrong, so correct it, resend the package. *Double check for updated forms*. Must add that my package got sent back for a missing signature and not incorrect payment.

So far for most people, OWP was approved in 1 or 2 days.
