Haven't they stopped accepting drafts from exchange houses ? This is what I heard last . i made my draft from my bank, better to be safe than sorry !

Since when have they stop accepting bank drafts from exchange co? I used Al Fardan for my processing fee on sept 2011 and it was accepted.

Now, for my RPRF i used the same exchange. Anyone, can confirm please? thanks.

I know ADCB bank drafts are not being accepted that I am sure.

Drafts from Al fardhan Exchange is accepted. other exchange houses are not issuing DD to Canada.

Probably, coz last I had checked with al rostamani and UAE exchange, they were not issuing drafts to Canada.

Thanks biju. Actually al fardan alreAdy did issue me dd for my rprf last week. If ever they are not being accepted then they should've have not issued dd to me in the first place. So i guess and i hope al fardan is still accepted.

The contention remains in "issuing" -- not in "accepting".
CIC 'accepts' drafts issued from anywhere... it's another matter that most Forex Houses in Dubai do not have a bonafide partnership with a Canadian Financial Institution, thus they r 'unable' to 'issue' drafts. While Al Fardan is in partnership with BMO -- so it 'works'.

I made my RFPF draft from ADCB in Feb 2012 and I didn't have any issues.As Captain said the "issuing" will not be done by any institution bank or exchange house.CIC will accept draft from any where.

Thanks Bestpal,
I have used al fardan, have not checked Mashreq bank. But it was swift and resonable through al fardan.
Regards,

@ mariyasubtain,

U can have a Draft made from Mashreqbank. But their Dd making charges would be higher and exchange rate for AED>CAD$ will be costlier than the only Exchange house which issues CAD$ Bank Drafts i.e. AL
FARDAN EXCHANGE which has many branches all over in UAE.
Most of us got our RPRF N landing drafts made there.

Go ahead, compare cost at Mashreq Bank n Al Fardan n choose ur options. Then post ur feedback.

Best Wishes!

Bestpal

IMHO, this is ur Golden Opportunity... go ahead & submit ur pps now - then plan to 'land' asap. One never knows what's in store next [vis-a-vis renewed meds]. Ur IO is likely to stamp & send back ur pps in couple of weeks max.

Hi All,I did my landing last month and had to come back to Dubai to go back in a years time.One surprising thing I found was there was no Immigration/Passport Control check when I did the exit from Canada.My question is how do they(meaning the CIC/Canadian Govt ) know when I did my exit from Canada?
