Check mo kung me instructions specified sa email ng VO. Kung wala - defer to the payment instructions for the Philippines:
http://www.canadainternational.gc.ca/philippines/visas/fees-frais.aspx

Payment Instructions - Philippines

- Fees must be paid by bank draft, certified cheque, postal money order (PMO) or manager's cheque. Cash payment is not accepted.
- Print your name on the back of the bank draft or certified cheque.
- Fees can only be paid in Canadian Dollar and Philippine Peso currencies although it is advisable to pay in Canadian Dollars to avoid currency fluctuation.
- If you are paying in Canadian dollars, the bank draft or certified cheque should be addressed to the: Receiver General for Canada.
- If you are paying in Philippine Pesos, the bank draft or certified cheque should be made payable to the: Embassy of Canada, Manila.
- Cheques can be issued by any local or international banks or post offices. Bank cheques are valid for 6 months from the date they were issued, while PMOs are valid for only 3 months.
- If bank drafts are issued from a bank in Canada in Canadian dollars, the "drawee" (also known as the clearance or correspondent bank) must be left blank.


Note: Try reading up sa instructions in the following:
1. Main:
www.cic.gc.ca - Application for Permanent Residence – Provincial Nominee Program (IMM P7000) http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/EP7TOC.asp#pay-fee
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/fees/result.asp?lob=pn&cat=perm
2. CEM
http://www.canadainternational.gc.ca/
http://www.canadainternational.gc.ca/philippines/visas/fees-frais.aspx

Madalas nasa Instruction Guide lang at mga websites ang sagot - take time to read through - less alinlangan, less mistakes.

...
Thank you very much Sir ragluf sa pagsagot..

My wife will be giving birth within a week and I already have the list of docs needed to include her in our application. Ask ko lng po:

1) Yung processing fee for my newborn pwd ko rin ba bayaran thru credit card? Wla naman specific instructions about the payment.

2) Yung passport photos nya, Canadian visa photos ba yun? Same sa pinasa namin during application with names sa likod ng pic?

Thanks sa mag rereply. I'm more concerned about the photos so I'm planning to ask the embassy din pag nanganak na si misis...

Via email is the next set of instructions to you.
Madalas is that "2nd AoR" kasama na sa MR or other added requirements like PCCs, as part of a set of instructions. Sometimes hindi formal na sinasabi na this is an AoR from the VO, sometimes me nakasaad talaga this is an AoR (nakalagay sa subject line, me UCI at File number indicated). Kung me natanggap ka na set of instructions - check mo if part of that sinasabing "all correspondence should be sent to this office" - that would identify the sender of the instructions is your VO. Then check the address kung saan nanggaling ang instructions - dun mo malalaman saang office nagmula ang instructions.

Considering naghihintay ka pa kung saan ang VO mo, better wait for the VO to be confirmed first, then alam mo saan ipadadala ang resibo ng RPRF. Note na kahit nagbayad ka ng RPRF via online payment/credit card, hindi ibig sabihin na linked at reflected agad sa file mo ang RPRF payment. Hindi napupunta ang payment sa VO kapag online, kaya nga me receipt na lalabas and ang receipt is sent to the VO bilang patunay nabayaran na. Then after verification of payment, this is expected to be an entry in your file, as part of requirements completed.

Thank you po again Sir Ragluf! Godbless po! Happy weekend everyone! May we all have a pleasant week ahead! ;D

Hi Einna,

Nope, we haven't done our Medical yet, still waiting for the AOR. OO, it's a MUST na you have to bring the vaccination record of the child. Good luck 2to all of us.

Also,
thanks to sir ragluf, I have not paid the RPRF yet. I'll do that (i guess) after the medical (with or without a request) and then gagawin kong pang update.
Thanks for the idea.
Hi LemonLuv:

Akala ko may AOR ka na kasi may nakalagay na nag application received sa signature mo 12-9-2014. Malapit na yan.
Ung sa anak ko walang issue kasi complete ang record nya. Ako nagpapakuha pa ako sa Pinas ng record ko.

Good luck sa atin :)

Wala naman restrictions sa pagbabayad. If you look sa application guide: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/EG7TOC.asp#pay-fee
It says the RPRF fee will be asked at a later stage, however, it did not state you cannot pay it early or you are not allowed to pay it early.

So you have options:
1. Pay it at the time of application submission to CIO
2. Pay it voluntarily even without a request
3. Pay it when requested by the VO

Now 1 and 2 ang risk nga nyan is if refused ang application, then kailangan mag-apply ka na lang ng refund. #3 is the sigurista approach - kapag sinabihan lang. However, me advantages ang 1 & 2 kasi inaalis mo na ang step na ito sa processing time mo, so me ilang weeks din na nababawas; kung sa mga VO na matatagal ang processing, this sometimes may translate into months removed sa processing.

I opt for #2 and these are my reasons:
- pwede mo gamitin ito as a reason to update your application; if things are stuck at walang updates sa eCAS, time for you to trigger an update sa file mo by sending new info. Payment of RPRF is new info, and can be used to trigger a look into your file.
- timing ang kailangan, kung naipasa na ang application mo sa VO (after CIO), at assessments na ang ginagawa, plus natapos ka na sa medical, and magaan naman sa iyo na magpaluwal ng bayad and me madali kang paraan ng refund if ever - then pay it midstream to trigger action on the application

In other threads, 2 years ago, yung mga natransfer from Buffalo, NY VO was stuck ng napakatagal sa CPP-O, and some of them opted to pay RPRF voluntarily - and got updates to their application. So mas malaki ang upside to them.

all in all - para-paraan lang yan; you can opt to wait it out, or find ways to influence how your application is progressing. There are ways, sabi nga - pag gusto me paraan... so think outside the box, and be creative.

Thank you. :)
