Fee payment schedule
All government processing fees must be submitted concurrently with the submission
of the application for permanent residence. By contrast, the Right of Landing
fee may be submitted at any time prior to the issuance of landing documents
and is refundable if, for any reason, the applicant does not land in Canada.
Fee payment currency
Canadian visa offices will accept the payment of fees in Canadian dollars
or in the equivalent local currency. It is recommended to pay fees in Canadian
dollars, if it is feasible, because of currency fluctuations. Canadian visa
offices set and change exchange rates from time to time and if you have not
submitted the exact foreign currency your application will be returned to
you causing a delay. At the very least you should consult with an expert in
these matters, or seek instructions from the particular Canadian visa office
as to the specific amount payable, the name of the payee and the bank upon
which the payment may be drawn.
The Right of Landing fee
All adults immigrating to Canada must pay what is referred to as "The Right
of Landing Fee". They may do so any time before landing documents are issued.
This fee is fully refundable if for any reason the applicant or accompanying
dependents do not land in Canada as permanent residents.
All adult immigrants must pay the Right of Landing Fee, even if the immigrant
is in Canada.
Other fees or costs
The application process may include other costs
such as those related to medical examinations and police clearances; translating
documents into French or English; and business and real estate valuations
in certain cases. |
