Also, at the upper right hand of their email letter is this address:
P.O. Box 2168
Makati Central Post Office
Makati City 1200, Philippines
Fax: (632) 843-1094
So, this is where we will send the payment thru courier?
Thanks again.

Hi,
If you are to send it by courier, then you have to use this address:
Embassy of Canada
Visa Section
Level 6, Tower 2, RCBC Plaza
6819 Ayala Avenue
Makati City 1200
Philippines
****Just wanna share..... I was told before that couriers are not supposed to deliver mails addressed to P.O. Box. I also realized, if can remember correctly that it's on the "Terms and Conditions" of the courier something like the address should not be a P.O. Box.
Another thing is when it's addressed to a P.O. Box the mail(s) is not directly delivered to the addressee, hence it will be received by the post office placed inside literally in the "Box" assigned to the addressee. And will have to wait before it will be delivered to the intended address.
Although there maybe couriers who accept mails addressed to P.O. Box, but make sure that the mail fits in the "Box", since they will drop the mail inside it and not deliver it directly.
As to whether you should PRINT your name if you pay by MC, i'm not sure. I paid mine in CAD$.
Payment Instructions - Philippines
"-Fees must be paid by bank draft, certified cheque, postal money order (PMO) or manager's cheque. Cash payment is not accepted.
-Print your name on the back of the bank draft or certified cheque.
-Fees can only be paid in Canadian Dollar and Philippine Peso currencies although it is advisable to pay in Canadian Dollars to avoid currency fluctuation.
-If you are paying in Canadian dollars, the bank draft or certified cheque should be addressed to the: Receiver General for Canada.
-If you are paying in Philippine Pesos, the bank draft or certified cheque should be made payable to the: Embassy of Canada, Manila.
-Cheques can be issued by any local or international banks or post offices. Bank cheques are valid for 6 months from the date they were issued, while PMOs are valid for only 3 months.
-If bank drafts are issued from a bank in Canada in Canadian dollars, the "drawee" (also known as the clearance or correspondent bank) must be left blank.
***Just don't PRINT your name if you pay by MC because the website did not include "manager's cheque" in the satement."
