I am helping a friend completing applications for his CIC PR (provincial nominee category).

He lives in Edmonton AB and has AINP nomination (AB), and is ready to send in his file.

A very confusing thing about mailing address:
- His AINP nomination letter clearly indicate on the front page to mail his CIC PR to Consulate General of Canada in Buffalo, NY.
- Buffalo office instruction clearly states (on page A-9) that for provincial nominee "if your address is in Canada", send application to Canadian Consulate General in Fort Erie, Ontario.

Which one is correct? Does it matter?
Thank you --

Fort Erie is the mailing address for Buffalo in Canada.
