GIC issue

[Cla876]

The address on my passport is the hostel address while i was doing my btech and my current/permanent address is in a different state. During wire transfer is it necessary to have permanenet address and passport address same. Urgent help needed!!! Please suggest banks as well I haven't done my GIC

Yeah banks require those to be same most time. I would recommend CIBC because they are more flexible in these matters and they will help you resolve most issues you might face. Contact them and ask about your case using numbers provided here or email or live chat available here which is available in business days and time in accordance with Canadian timezones. If through mail they will reply mostly within 24 hours provided those are consecutive business days.

The address in the remitter bank (student bank account in your home country) and passport should be the same address to get your gic done!
Go with CIBC Canada for gic, you will get 25 CAD back by using the referral program in CIBC, whereas Scotia is also good but it is taking 1 week to 10 days for processing gic as per my knowledge. Verify and proceed accordingly.
