CanadaInterview Fun in Montreal
I'm so sorry you have just this 1 more step to go through before you can get your visa. sad.gif Hopefully you'll have it soon enough.

CanadaMontreal Review!
Wow, hopefully you do get it sometime today. As far as I know, you don't have to be the one who signs for it. I have gotten things come to my house for my mom(same last name as me) and my stepdad(different last name) and had no problems signing for it. Just to be sure though, you might want to be there, if possible.

CanadaWhat Montreal said about the X-ray
With how unpredictable MTL can be, I'm bringing my x-ray with me. I found a tube at Staples to put it in, so it's easier to carry around. Better to be safe, than sorry.

Canada1 quick question b4 I go to my interview tomorrow
Thanks everyone. I got my copies of my passport. As for the interview, I'm a nervous wreck LOL. I'm taking the bus to Montreal tomorrow evening and will arrive there at 4am Wednesday! I got someone coming with me, so I won't be alone at that time of the morning.

Canada1 quick question b4 I go to my interview tomorrow
Hey y'all,

I was double checking all my papers last night and I put my $200 USD into mine and my son's passports(to know where it's at) and I noticed a stamp in my passport. I had totally forgot about it. Its a stamp from homeland security dated Dec 06 from when I had went through customs at the Toronto airport and was sent for secondary questioning. It says "admitted" and there was a white card in there, which was given back to Canadian customs when I returned.

My question is, should I photocopy this stamp, along with my picture in my passport to have for the interview? I'm leaving for MTL tomorrow night on the bus, so I want to get it photocopied today. I'm headed for my college class this morning and won't be able to check this post until this afternoon, in which I plan on photocopying this stuff anyways while I'm there, but just to make sure, do I need this copy?

Any help will be appreciated!

CanadaMedisys @ Toronto Experiences
I went to Seiden's in Toronto and it was pretty fast. I had my son with me and we were both out of there within 45 minutes. Only 1 thing I didnt like about the whole medical experience was the woman taking my blood. She was a bit cranky.
PfcsBabyFemaleCanada2007-10-23 05:57:00
CanadaDocument question.
My police certificate is the same as Nini's. From everything I've read here on VJ, it won't be a problem at your interview.

I didn't know that MTL actually sent replys back that long. Well hopefully you'll hear something before the 4-6 month wait like a lot of us had to do.

CanadaProof?
I don't think I've ever heard of anyone having to hand over their pictures at the interview. Only thing I've heard is that they've asked to see them. If you have any pictures lying around and not in the scrapbook, I think it would be easier and less bulky to take them instead.
PfcsBabyFemaleCanada2007-10-21 11:27:00
CanadaProof?
I'm bringing as much as I can fit into my plastic accordian file. I got about 8 pictures and all my plane tickets. I couldn't find any phone bills from a few years ago. I must have thrown them away. I talk to my fiancee every night on Skype, so theres no phone bill. Just bring as much as you can. Better to have too much, than not enough.
PfcsBabyFemaleCanada2007-10-21 09:13:00
CanadaGood Luck PfcsBaby & piosenka!
Thanks. I'm leaving for the bus station this evening. Hopefully I'll run into piosenka at the consulate. I'll be getting home around 1am Thursday, and if all goes well tomorrow, I'll be buying plane tickets that same day. So I'll get a review up as soon as I can.

CanadaI heart the Canada Board
Looks like I have the same problem neiks. I'm glad I can come to VJ and the Canadian forum. The people here are awesome. If it wasn't for them, I don't know what I would have done. I would have probably been a complete mess.

CanadaDoes anyone who when visa are sent out in the mail?
Got the visas!!!!! kicking.gif kicking.gif kicking.gif

Apparently the people who work for the post office think normal people like me are stupid. I walked into Shoppers where the post office was and told the woman I had called earlier about my pkg. She asks me for my verification card that was left at my house. I told her AGAIN that no one came to my house yesterday to drop my pkg off and that the driver who was supposed to deliver it is a lazy incompetent a$$hole who cant do his job right. She kept saying sorry and I know it wasn't her fault, but I couldnt help myself LOL.

So I got them and boy do they look pretty lol. Only 17 more days and I'm outta here!

CanadaDoes anyone who when visa are sent out in the mail?
I hate Canada Post mad.gif . I signed up for email notification for my pkg and I got an email this morning saying that there was an attempted delivery yesterday and now my pkg is sitting at the post office for me to pick it up. #######? I was home all day yesterday waiting for my visas to come and no one came to my house. I just got off the phone with them and they confirmed that my pkg is sitting there waiting for pick up. I filed a complaint with them. So, now I have to wait for Shoppers Drug Mart to open up at 9am to make sure that my pkg is even there so I can go get it. All I can say is it better be there or someone is gunna pay for this. Stupid post office.

Ps: Think I should have posted this in the vent thread lol.

Ok, its finally in their system. I just got the email 30 minutes ago at 8:15pm saying they recieved it a 9am. Go figure lol. At least I know its on its way!

CanadaDoes anyone who when visa are sent out in the mail?
Ok, so I got my plane tickets. It was $750.66 for 2 one-way tickets from Toronto to Atlanta Georgia. The lady stressed at me about purchasing one-way tickets with a child traveling. I told her I was activating a visa. She didn't say nothing more lol. So I'm leaving here on Friday November 16th! Gawd I can't wait lol.

Btw..Still nothing on Canada Post site sad.gif

CanadaDoes anyone who when visa are sent out in the mail?
Well, I'm not waiting for Canada Post or MTL lol. If I dont get tickets soon, I wont be leaving before Thanksgiving. As it looks now, I wont leave until the 20th and not the 13th like I had planned.

Yeah, Canada Post SUCKS! lol. I wish they'd let us use UPS or something else.
PfcsBabyFemaleCanada2007-10-26 07:13:00
CanadaDoes anyone who when visa are sent out in the mail?
I don't have a credit card, or I would try other sites. I usually go up to the airport and purchase the tickets there. I check Air Canada's site and see what the prices are before I go and get them for the price listed on the site. I used Flight Center once and will never use them again. They are supposed to match the airlines prices, or be cheaper and that wasn't the case when I got them there 1 time. So I just stick with the airport.
PfcsBabyFemaleCanada2007-10-26 07:11:00
CanadaDoes anyone who when visa are sent out in the mail?
Nothing yet Liz. I'm going to check again later this morning and probably 100 times until I go to bed tonight lol.

Oh, and the prices of the plane tickets already went up another $60 a ticket since 11pm last night, so I really need to get them today.

CanadaDoes anyone who when visa are sent out in the mail?
Well, I checked Canada Post website again and I guess my visas haven't been sent, or as Emancipation said, Canada Post didnt even bother to put the info in their system yet. Either way, I'm going to get my tickets tomorrow. I'm sure that they will be here before I go. Thanks again everyone for your help!

PfcsBabyFemaleCanada2007-10-25 18:02:00
CanadaDoes anyone who when visa are sent out in the mail?
Thats what I been thinking flames. I have bought so many plane tickets in the past, so I know that the prices will start going up everyday I wait. Right now, 2 one-way tickets from Toronto to Atlanta Georgia is $706. To me, thats too much, but I worry that it'll go up more. I'm going to wait until tomorrow. I'm still tired from yesterday. Hopefully the prices will either go down, or stay where they're at and maybe Canada post will get thier sh!t together and add my pkg on the site lol.
PfcsBabyFemaleCanada2007-10-25 12:27:00
CanadaDoes anyone who when visa are sent out in the mail?
I was thinking so too. I dont plan on moving until at least November 13th, but I just like knowing that I won't have any delays. I'm sure that it'll get here no later than next week, but I can't help being paranoid lol.
