HELP! About RPRF payment

[Carlos1982]

Hi there,

My process of Permanent Residence is now at the stage where I have to to pay Right of Permanent Residence Fee.

I lived in Canada for 18 months. When I submitted my application to Detroit I was living in Canada. After 6 months of that I moved back to my home country (Ecuador).

I am now in Ecuador and my question is: could I pay this RPRF fee at a bank in Ecuador? and what form of payment is the right one from here? Of course I will make it payable to the "Canadian Consulate General", but from Ecuador.

Anybody can help me with this?

It should be in the form of DEMAND DRAFT and can be from any institution

Hi

I have looked at the Detroit office website to see what forms of payment they accept, may be you should have a look yourself:

Anyway, I am pasting the information they have on that page:

Thanks for the replies!

What if I send it as money order through Western Union? Would that be a valid option?

Does Western Union issue money orders? I wasn't aware.....

Yes, check the website: westernunion.com

They have a section named BILL PAY & MONEY ORDERS.

What do you think? Would that be possible to my need?
