After about 1-1/2 yrs, I am about to receive a substantial inheritance from a relative in Canada (I live in US, with dual citizenship). The law firm up there asked if I had a CDN bank acct to deposit it in (I don't) or should they send a check to me in CDN funds. Looking at the current exchange rate ..cdn $ worth about 20% less today...i am thinking of opening a bank account there and holding the $ at least for awhile to see if rate improves...as I do not need the $ at present. Downside I believe I have to open it in person..difficult but can do. Wondering if I could get some feedback or advice from the many of you who are in US but from abroad who have similiar situations of dealing with exchange rates. I think this might have more complications than I can think of! Any ideas will be most welcome! Thanks!
