Hi,

About a month ago I applied for my wife's sponsorship and immigration. I sent my docs along with a draft in canadian funds payable to 'Receiver General for Canada' which i got made from HBL Currency Exchange in karachi. Last Week i got an email from CPCM saying that the draft was incorrect and did not meet their requirements. This is what was in the email:

The form of fee payment is incorrect. Please submit an international bank draft or
money order, payable to the Receiver General for Canada, in Canadian Funds to the
Attention of Officer DM. All bank drafts or money orders must:
1. Be payable to the Receiver General for Canada
2. Be in Canadian funds
3. Be able to be cashed through a Canadian financial institution
4. Clearly indicate the name, complete address (not a post office box number) and
account number of the financial institution in Canada where it may be cashed


I don't understand it, and neither could the manager at the currency exchange. The draft met all their requirements, and they did not mention exactly which requirement was not fulfilled. I was wondering if anyone else had this problem? I am completely baffled...
