Greetings,
I am located in Canada. When I try to send a payment to someone in America, I am getting the following message "The country you're trying to send money to can't receive this payment." How can this be resolved?

Hello @DrVibe,
Welcome! Thanks for visiting the PayPal Community Forum. I'm sorry to hear you've run into some issues sending money to a friend located in the US. You should absolutely be able to send funds from Canada to the US. I would recommend double-checking with the receiver to make sure their account is registered properly and doesn't have any limitations present on it.
Good luck with this and future transactions,
- Jon K
