This is very agency dependent so you can choose an agency that does not require you to do this. One of the reasons we choose our agency (there were other reasons but this was a biggie) was that we did not have to bring "cash" with us for anything other than our own use. Our agency wired everything over to St. Petersburg (our agency was NOT a big agency with many offices). We were not comfortable with having to bring large amounts of cash with us, just did not want to do it. This should be a question for the agencies when you are doing your research.
