Online payment! HELP!

Is it a credit/debit card..meaning, it can be used as EITHER credit OR debit??  If so..then you CAN'T USE IT!!  This happened to me too--it HAS to be credit ONLY.  I don't know why it's that way but this was definitely the reason we got the error when we did it (there was plenty of money on the credit/debit so that wasn't the problem).  We tried our credit-only card right after getting the error twice on the other card, and it went through without any issues at all.  I wonder if for whatever reason, it reads it as debit, and so it denies it.  I have ONLY had this issue with paying immigration fees--every single other business reads the card as credit if they tell it to.. 

Hi

Yes, you pay on line, selecting Mississauga as your sponsorship and the application go there first, before forwarding the application (if approved) to London.

Both my spouse and myself tried using our bank cards (debit & credit) to pay for a citizenship certificate. It would not go through. Makes sense that it will only work with a credit ONLY card. Thank You!!!
