Hello everyone, I am sponsoring my mother to Canada. She just received the package on medical examination today. On the letter it stated the following:

"Applicants who meet the admission requirements for permanent residence in Canada are required to pay the right of permanent residence fee(RPRF). The RPRF must be paid before you and your accompanying dependant receive your permanent resident visa. The payment instruction sheet is enclosed. The RPRF only applied to the principal applicant and his/her accompanying spouse or common-law partner.(If you are sponsored by your relative in Canada, please contact your sponsor to pay the processing fee and/or RPRF through the case Processing centre in Mississauga.)"

The letter didn't include the payment instruction sheet. Is there something wrong? When do I have to pay this fee? After my mother has received a positive result on her visa application or ASAP? Because I am in the states now and won't be back to Canada until May, how do I pay this fee if I need to do it ASAP?

Thank you. ^^

1. You pay on lline to Mississauga. See: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/fees/index.asp
2. You better ensure that you are in Canada before the visa is issued, if CIC/CHC checks.

Thank you PMM! The link is super helpful!

One more question, I just remember that I have paid $1040 when I submit my sponsorship package on 2007.
According to cic website, RPRF is $490, sponsorship is $75, and principal applicant is $475, and they total up to $1040. So is that mean I have already paid the RPRF? Is there a way I can find out what I have paid?
