hey state bank of India is proving DD with the validity of 6 months. u just go to any forex branch of SBI and show them the document checklist showing the 6 months validity.. as a proof they ask for passport and copy of it. they may ask for pancard copy also . they give you one slip to fill and ask you for the payment( by cheque or cash).. the procedure will hardly take 15 min... not more than this.. and u will get DD..
so go ahead .. best of luckk.
Hi Everyone,
I went to almost every bank in the city and SBI main forex branch at parliament street today to get the DD with 6 month validity.
A big question mark here. The staff there categorically told me that the DD shall only be valid for 3 months. They say that "yes" there is no mention of expiry date on forex DD's they issue but they are valid for only 3 months .. It's the same with cheques as well.
The lady there mentioned that many people have got DD's issued for Canada Immigration but no one asked for 6 month validity. Had it been asked for, it is very clear that if the DD is presented after 3 months of issue, it will be declined.
My question to people from India who have submitted DD's.... DID YOU CHECK FOR VALIDITY OF DD'S ISSUED PLEASE ??? it may be a big problem if the CIC takes too long (read more than 3 months) to process the applications...
