<p>Hey, I submitted the SIR online on 24th and it says on my status page also that it's received that day. But I'm a little confused cuz when I did it, it said something about "E-check," and I didn't know what the hell it was. I don't know if they got my transfer, and worried that I need to make a check or something.</p>
<p>Did you pay the fee already?
Echeck is paying your fees electronically and you need to have a checking account. I am a little confused too, because i did use Echeck but they havent charged anything to my account... so i wonder if i did it right. :)</p>
<p>Yea, that's exactly what happened to me.
So I typed my bank's info and checking account's number.
I guess this is paying my fees electronically.</p>
<p>The SIR gets submitted immediately... the money takes longer. I think it has to go through a online company, then the bamk so it will probably take a few days at least. Don't worry... they'll take the $$ :-)</p>
<p>Vampire, Did you submit payment? The way I read the 2 choices was if you submit the SIR electronically than you must also send payment electronically. It is not hard. You just need to fill out the information regarding your or your parents bank account. I thought that it could be either checking or savings. Just follow the prompts and make sure that you get your payment sent!</p>
<p>I sent mine electronically, but I remember that you could send the check in my mail as well. Well, I don't really remember and I am glad that it is over with.</p>
<p>also want to make sure your checkin account isn't empty...that would be a bummer to have it bounce :/</p>
