tener que + infinitive

Tengo que ir al banco. or Tengo que para ir al banco. If the second sentence is correct, how does "para" improve the sentence?

I don't think the second sentence is correct, if it is, can someone please explain?oradba

Perhaps the sentence was "Tengo que ir para el banco". Then it would make sense. Randy

I have to go to the bank Tengo que ir al banco

The second sentence is definitely wrong. "Tengo que ir para el banco" although it does sound a bit funny to me I'm sure I've heard it before being used to say that you are "heading towards the bank". Hope that helps. Mauricio.
