hi arise... all payments are addressed to "Receiver General of Canada" if you are in canada..then go to the bank and get a Bank Draft or Money Draft(bank might recommend one of the two as one is cheaper) draft dont need account number...just payable to Receiver General of Canada
see this page will address your questions clearly...also if you are submitting to CIO(assuming your a PNP...so you need to send only to CIO)
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/EP7TOC.asp#pay-fee
check the section
Method of payment options
if my VO is Buffalo, then it makes sense that my file will be transferred to Ottawa to get AOR/MR becuase it was supposed to Buffalo. Now, if my VO is NDVO, would my case be transferred to Ottawa also? The ottawa can do is just to send me AOR email, then they have to send whole file to ND. Then ND will send me AOR or maybe ppr (not for other VO though). CIO may want to send all non-buffalo applications directly to their home VO after cashing money, rather than send to Ottawa.
