Hello Anthony, please I require your assistance, I will be submitting early next week/. My questions goes thus, how did you do your payment since your application is for your family, did you pay all in one receipt, and how did you attach the receipt for you only or for each family member. See my plan below, is it right?

Applicant	“Who are you paying for?”	Payment receipt
Myself	I'm paying for at least 1 person	Upload/associate receipt → Ticked Everyone
Spouse	Someone else will pay for me	No separate receipt required
Minor 1	Someone else will pay for me	No separate receipt required
Minor 2	Someone else will pay for me	No separate receipt required

Question for those of you out there who are farther along in this process: I've seen a bit of discussion about applications being returned because the personal IDs submitted were not the correct type. Looking back, I submitted a pic of my passport (USA) and driver's license (QC). For my spouse, I submitted a PR card (Canada) and health insurance card (QC). And for our child a passport (US) and health insurance card (QC). Was that the right thing to do?

Under Travel Documents, I included all of our passports (US), PR cards (Canada), Nexus Cards and Canadian work permits (I don't think those count as "travel documents" but I figured it wasn't a big deal to include them if it turns out they're not needed).
