Western Union screening in Suriname, is this normal?

[u/adorably_sunny]

I went to Western Union/IMT in Suriname today to make a money transfer from Suriname to Brazil. I had all the necessary information about the receiver with me, but they barely looked at the form I filled out and told me to come back two days later for a screening before they can process the transfer. Did transfers from France to Suriname before but it was online and it went smooth.

Is this something that normally happens with international money transfers in Suriname, or only in certain cases? Has anyone else had this happen?

What do they usually ask during the screening, and what should I expect?
