International bank transfers sent via swift are required to be settled within 2 business days. However, Canada has a Monday to Friday business week, and Doha has Sunday to Thursday, which means extra days may be spent "in transit". If you still don't have your money get the following info from your brother/brother's bank

Bank reference number

Full name and address of the bank to which the money was sent by brother's bank (if your branch is not the head office, then another delay may ensue)

Take this information to your bank and request they trace the $$

Usually bank transfers take only 3 days. The sender should verify from the bank what has happened to the remittance transfer so they can check from their end.
