AND I think I'll move to Paxawhoosits PA :-) You can look for me there next time you want to cash an international money order. :-) Barb

Let me clarify that- I have worked at 3 different post offices as a window clerk over the last 15 years, and I have never sold an international money order (not ALL offices do) and have never cashed an international money order. I was not aware that the post office would cash them, and since I have never gotten any information about cashing them from anyone in authority, I would still send you to the bank. : ) Barb

Here's the list:

I cashed an international postal money order this morning at the post office here in DeSoto MO. It was for about a hundred bucks and from Canada.

Yes, very few postal employees know about this and I had to educate the local office the first time I received one.
