Bank Draft question..

[terem-teremok]

My question might seem stupid to some of you.. but still:

I live in US. Need to submit RFPR fees to a visa office outside of US. My visa office accepts funds in CA dollars and Euros. Can I send a bank draft in CA dollars from a US bank?
I know it has to be payable to Receiver General for Canada, but do I need their SWIFT, account number or anything else in the country where my visa office is? Or is it more like a certified check, just a piece of paper?

Any way, I hope you guys understand my confusion on how this works and help me with as much details as possible keeping in mind that I am in US and have to submit the payment in CA dollars or Euros.

Thanks in advance!

You can send from your US Bank account CA dollars ammount, it is one kind of wire transfer, just read instructions of RPRf and make DD on the name what the VO mentioned in RPRF.

Thanks for your reply OMM,

Actually I did not get the RPRF Request yet, I'm just preparing myself for it.
So all I need is a name of reciever? Or do you meen that there will be more detailed instructions in RFPR fee request?
I went to a couple of banks here like Chase and TCF and telleres told me that they can not issue cashiers checks in CA dollars (? gotta ask again). So there is a difference in cash. check and bank draft, do I understand that correctly?
What is your "stupid proof" suggestion? My VO is Bucharest. I know I have to submit my BD to "Receiver General for Canada" in CA dollars. What do I say to a bank teller when I get to the bank?
Sorry for being so dumb about it... :-[

Thanks again OMM!

dont prepared in advance you will notify with detail letter by VO.
send Credit card visa or DD is best option to track your payment information. my bank of america will issue DD so no worries for me, I paid my fees with CIO by DD in CAD$ from Bank of america.

Ask to the Bank , if your DD is cleared then no problem, otherwise it will be return to you complete package.
if you still not send document to CIO then correct it from bank, means issue another DD and cancel this DD.
