Published: December 1, 1996

Question: There have been a couple of postings lately suggesting that visa application fees are going up. Is this true? If so, what will the new fees be, and from when? Will right-of-landing (the big $$$ one) be going up?

Answer: As of January 1st, some fees will be increasing. In regard to permanent resident status applications, only the business class processing fee will be increased.

Comments: Please note that these fee changes do not reflect any changes in the existing Regulations or Selection Criteria.
