Butch,
I understand that money orders drawn from Can. banks take that clearing time. I understand that U.S. partners of Can. banks will also take that clearing time.
I am very curious to know if anyone in America has received a Canada Post money order in U.S. funds and been able to cash it without the wait?
They are very safe and legal; however, they might look very odd to an American Bank, I don't know and that is my question. 🙂
