Really Need Advice--
 

I am at the point of sending our application to Buffalo--applying in the category of federal skilled worker.

My looming birthday (Dec. 23) will cause us a loss of 2 points if we can't get it registered, as I am the primary applicant. We would still have barely enough, but....

We could take it there (using frequent flyer miles) if that would help. Of course, we would rather use Fed-ex, or registered mail or something if that would get it there and logged in.

You are wasting time for the third day already. If you would have used a
courier (FedEx, DHL, etc.) on the same day you posted your question here the

As far as fees go - get draft in Canadian dollars made payable to "Receiver
General for Canada" and drawn on Canadian bank.

Thank you for your response, although since no one responded before today, I don't see how I was wasting time. If I had sent the package and it had been refused, then I would have been wasting time.
