CanadaI'm starting to panick!
Is Montreal answering their phones yet?

Also, based on others timelines, you will likely have it before the end of the week.

Did the the officer tell you how long it would take?

yay for the reuniting of the kitties!! kicking.gif

I'm glad you were able to bring Canadian kitty over safe and sound. Does she/he travel well? I am bringing my cat over, too, and I am considering getting something for her to calm her down. She doesn't even travel well to the vet that is 15min away!

And thanks for the tip on the pet food. In the past I've traveled with my dogs and I always bring Milkbones with them. I've never had a problem with the treats, but maybe actually food a whole different story.

CanadaAny Nov. 8th interviews getting their visa today?
hey, that's awesome news. Normally Canada Post is slow with updating their website, so if it says delivery today, you should be good to go... let me know when I can do my happy dance for you

it will look a little something like this...

Okay, Jeremy. I've finally gotta ask because it's been driving me crazy. WHO is that guy in your avatar and why is he banging on that box? He looks disturbingly like my ex brother-in-law. helpsmilie.gif


haha, yes yes, I have been dying to know, too!!

CanadaOHHH, I think it's here!!!
yeah, I was wondering, with you guys being so far on the other side of Ontario, if yours would take an extra day. Glad to see you moved up your travelling plans though. I am sure you will have your visa tomorrow smile.gif

Will you be taking the Ambassador Bridge? Keep us posted with a review, I'm headed that way too haha.
MandEFemaleCanada2007-11-15 13:50:00
CanadaOHHH, I think it's here!!!
haha, I know, having to wait 2 more weeks, now that my visa is almost in hand is going to kill me. But, I didn't want to get ahead of myself and resign before I knew for sure that I was approved. I thought with my luck I'll be missing some critical paperwork or something. I can't live on the edge haha.
MandEFemaleCanada2007-11-15 13:17:00
CanadaOHHH, I think it's here!!!
thanks guys smile.gif I totally plan to go to the post office tonight, just to see if it's ready. I'm sure the post office lady will look at me meanly and tell me to read the card haha.

Jeremy and Kristy, any word on yours yet?
MandEFemaleCanada2007-11-15 12:46:00
CanadaOHHH, I think it's here!!!
haha, I know, I just can't help but wonder. I haven't even booked a moving truck or resigned yet, because I just want to be a hundred percent sure that the interviewing officer didn't change his mind after telling me that everything looked to be in order. For everyone who have plans to wed or move a week after their interview, I don't know how you do it. The stress would kill me surely!!

I can't believe I have to wait till tomorrow... crying.gif hahah
MandEFemaleCanada2007-11-15 12:22:00
CanadaOHHH, I think it's here!!!
I just ran home on my lunch break, and missed the post man by literally 10 min!! I have a delivery notice card, that says I can pick up my parcel tomorrow. I am sure this is my visa!!

Let's just hope it says APPROVED!! dancin5hr.gif

That's awesome guys!! Can you even believe that after having waited so long, you are now applying for your marriage certificate?!! I don't know about you, but this whole things seems very surreal all of a sudden.

CanadaVisa finally in hand...
Finally, the freaking thing is here, and now I can start planning my move.

But, I am very curious, what is in the sealed envelope? It is very heavy.

And I had no idea the visa was just a sticker that goes in the passport. I had been expecting a big document, with flashing lights and tassles kicking.gif

hey kaftar,

Glad to hear it!! Congratulations !

So, this is now the 3rd interviewee that has been told their passport will be sent out in 2 weeks, even though their mail out time doesn't seem to have changed.

Your interviewer was a nice guy, sounds like the guy the other two had their interview with. Someone needs to call him and tell him it's 2 days not 2 weeks - I nominate IR5 good.gif


Yeah, Kafter, you will likely have your visa by Wednesday of next week. Both Mary/Trev and I were told 2-3 weeks, and we got it in 4 business days.

Hey Jeremy and Kristy,

I am sorry that your visa has not come today sad.gif

If you have the tracking, you can call Canada Post, and ask them what is going on. Have you already tried this?

It's weird that the last update was that it was put in the post on Wednesday, and you haven't heard anything since.

Please keep us posted. All my fingers and toes are crossed for you guys.

CanadaQuestion about dates on the visa
I am pretty sure the pet:exp refers to the expiry of the petition. I remember when my sponsor applied, he read somewhere that I had a year to apply for my K-1 visa after the petition was approved. So, for examply, when the consulate sends you packet 3, don't hold on to it for 8 months, send it in as soon as possible (though who wouldn't anyways?? haha)

CanadaAdjustment of Status Filing Fee
Hey everyone,

Does anyone know how much the fee is for adjusting status?

I though I read somewhere that it was $1010, but now I can't find that info again.

Also, does the fee include the cost of applying for EAD and AP and Biometrics, or are these all seperate fees?

Any other fee's that I should prepare for?

CanadaABF U-Pack Tips
Hey all,

I know that U-Pack is a favorite among VJ folks moving their stuff from Canada to the US.

I know the website provides a lot of detail on how to pack and stuff, but does anyone have any person tips to share about loading the trailer?

Anyone have a shipment arrive that was damaged?

Do you recommend that tie off as much as possible?

I'll be loading the trailer on Monday, and I'm a little nervous about things moving around and stuff.

Also, I'm filling out Form 3299 for customs. Any tips on how to fill out the second page? There is a fourth column that asks to describe foriegn items that were bought in the US. Can I just leave this blank if it doesn't apply to me?

Thanks everyone!
