So, me and my husband are pretty much done with our outland PR application. We went to go pay the fees online only to discover that we are no longer allowed to do that. I'm a bit confused and panicked about how exactly I'm supposed to pay the fees while still inside of Canada? Is there any way at all? I don't plan on leaving Canada until AFTER my PR is approved... ack. I'm scared. My freaking FBI clearance expires on Wednesday and I'm in a rut. HELP!

I believe if you dont pay it online.
you can pay it at any bank. there should be instructions on cic to pay at a bank alot of people do it.
lemme see if i can find some.

Can I pay the fees at a bank in Canada even if I'm applying outland? I seriously thought that you could pay the fees for an outland application online. We're paying in CAD.

It says this:

If you are applying at an office outside Canada:

You can find information on fee payment methods at the website of the visa office (immigration applications) or the Canadian embassy, high commission or consulate (proof of citizenship applications) responsible for your area. Visa and consular offices cannot accept receipts for fees paid in Canada.

Im sure you can pay the fees online just go through the inland links..
all the money goes to the same office.

but if you want to be sure, give cic a quick call and confirm you can do it online. even though your outland.

because we paid online and we are outland, that was back in december 2011. but i dont think anything has changed since than.

well our immigration consultant got the page ready online and i just went to her computer and put my info in but because i wasnt right beside her computer im not sure what links she pressed to get to the page for paying.
but im sure nothing has changed since december.. she probabaly just had us pay as if we were applying inland.
