Application Fee Payment

Subject: Application Fee Payment
  I am in the US, applying to Buffalo as a Skilled Worker:
What form of payment should I use for my application fee that will be sent with my application? USPS has "International Money Orders" that are written in US Dollars and can be cashed by Canada. I thought the payment needed to be MADE in Canadian Dollars. For example, I thought I had to send a money order that was written out to Canadian Consulate General in the amount of $550.00 -- With the USPS International Money Order, it would be to Canadian Consulate General for $491.00 US (the approximate exchange).

Do I need to go to a bank that can exchange international currency and hopefully THEY will have money orders that can be written in Canadian Dollars???

Any advice I could get would be great, THANK YOU!

Go to your bank; they will issue an International Money Order (collectable in Canada) in the amount requested by you (CAD 550) and your account will be debited accordingly, with the exchange rate practicable by them and usually a 20-30 USD fee.
Include that with your documents. Hope it helps...

My bank does not have international money orders. I will have to go to a larger bank. Will the Money order say "$550.00" or will it list the USD equivalent?

No need to pay in Canadian $. Pay in U.S. dollars. The CIC website gives the amount in both currencies. Since you are in the U.S., by all means pay in U.S. dollars as almost everyone does applying from here. Just go to your bank, ask for a cashiers check made payable in the U.S. amount to CIC or Canadian consulate, and send.
