This is my first time sending anything out of the US. I will be sending something to Canada. I was wondering how many IRCs do I need send along with my sase to have two 4X6 photos returned to me. Thanks for any help and God bless.

Depending on the size and weight of your SAE, I guess 1 or 2. A IRC is worth 1.70 Canadian dollars.
You can calculate the price here:

Marieke,

Thanks for the help. It was really helpful. I found the cost to send from Canada to my address from the website you provided to be $1.20. So, I think one should cover it. Thanks again.

Actually i live in canada and nothing is $1.20 to mail,it goes like this up to 30g is $1.00 30 to 50g is $1.22 up to 100g is $2.00 100g to 200g is $3.50 and 200g to 500g is $7.00 and after that its no longer lettermail and goes as a package. If you are adding a piece of cardboard along with your 2 4x6 photos it will be $2.00 for postage back to the states,otherwise it might make it for $1.22 but i would have $2.00 on there to be safe.I send alot of stuff to the states so i know what im talking about.
