this is a minor error or the last characters are omitted due to limited space in the state/province name's field with Scotiabank's system. I don't think this will create any issues anywhere.

Same happened with me , i just got my GIC Certificate , but have found a typing mistake , they write "Punab" instead of "Punjab" in address section. "J" is missing. Now , i dropped a mail to their trailing mail. Let's see what will happen .

if any1 went through same issue, pls suggest.

Hi,
I had send the wire from India for my GIC account on 25 June. I recieved a wire rejected mail on 4 July. The reason was address mismatch. Till then, I believed that my address was same as that of my passport. The account wasn't started by me but my agency.

As per the instructions given by a customer care executive, I requested for an address change with my passport as an attachment but to my surprise they changed it again to an address which doesn't exactly match my passport.

Now when I checked with the customer care, the representative told me that they have entered a remark on my account that I had requested for an address change but due to the system limitations, they cannot update exactly as that of my passport.

Then the representative told me to send the wire with the address in my passport and it wont be rejected.

To confirm, I called the customer care after an hour. Another representative told me to wire the amount using the address that is currently in the gic account.

I am going mad and my classes are starting on 30 august. Anyone have any clue what I should do in this case?

Will the address mismatch cause rejection of the wire again. If not, then will it create problem when I am applying for study permit as both the addresses aren't exactly same.

The address in my passport is of this format:

ABCD HOUSE
EFGH PO IJKL
MNOP KERALA 123456

where ABCD HOUSE is the house name,
EFGH is the post office name PO is the short hand for Post Office,
IJKL is the city name,
MNOP is the district,
KERALA the state and 123456 the pincode

My GIC account has the following address:
ABCD HOUSE
EFGH, MNOP
IJKL
KERALA 689124
INDIA


Please shed some light into this matter. Thanks! ☺
HI there, I got my gic rejection, saying address issues but I wrote the same address as that of my passport but even though it got rejected. My question here is was it due to different address in passport and bank account. I have different address in passport and bank. What next steps shall I take. Please help

Hello, my bank address and my passport address are the same.

The only thing is in my GIC application address, It is not mentioned as near Ruparel College as landmark.

Will this cause any problem as my bank address and passport address matches perfectly.
