Hi,
I've been reading for a while about the inmigration process, and was thinking on hiring a legal representative but they actually charge a considerable ammount for this purpose, when I can guide muy own process by myself.

My main concerns are:
1. How to make the payments: As i live in Dominican Republic, it is not so easy to get a bank draft or money order in Canadian Dolars, so i don't know whats the best way to proceed with the payment.
2. Where to send the application: Before (about a year ago) the first application form had to be sent to the office assigned to my country (in my case Puerto Principe, Haiti), but now i read that I can send the application form to the CIU in Sydney, Nova Scotia; but in a few docs I read, they say it can be sent to the office in Puerto Principe, so that is a bit confusing.

If anyone has more information in details about these topics, please let me know. It will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Jean
 
Hi,

I believe you are required to send your application to Nova Scotia once you have diligently filled the forms and supplied all information asked of you.

If in doubt please consultant this link: http://www.cic.gc.ca/

As for the draft, ask from banks in your country they should be in a better position to help. Should you be faced with difficulty you might want to consider asking a friend leaving in Canada to help.

Regards
