Hi

I need to pay the fees for spousal sponsorship, $1040 in total, living in ireland. We do not have a credit card and are hard pressed to find someone who could pay for us so I need to do an international postal order/bank draft. The CIC website says:


"If you cannot pay online, you may pay fees with an international money order or a bank draft made payable to the Receiver General for Canada. It must be in Canadian funds.

To ensure the bank draft or money order can be cashed at a Canadian financial institution (such as a bank or Western Union) you must include some information. On the front, you must clearly write the financial institution’s

* name and complete address (not a post office box number) and
* account number(s).

It is very important to include this information. If you do not, your application may be delayed or returned to you."


What I am unclear about is which financial institution I am supposed to put on this. Is it just any random bank in Canada? And how do I get their account number?

Has anyone paid this way? Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
