CanadaUpdate on our Case being processed after Denial
It's infuriating :angry: ... the only thing to do is keep positive (smile while gritting your teeth) and eventually (hopefully much sooner than later) this will all be just a bitter memory.

CanadaMontreal interview...Visa....denied....hmmm pending...

Thanks everyone! Our fingers are crossed.

I emailed Montreal yesterday to see if they had received our extra documentation we hand deleivered last Friday (5 days ago) and see what the status was. I got back an email basically saying basically

"hmmm well we get lots of mail, it might or might not have been received but either way nothing has been touched on your file...bye"

Fantastic! I travel a bunch for work and am stuck without a passport until who knows when (I asked for a timeframe in my email and of course it was ignored)...I have no doubt the visa will be approved and I'm not super concerned about that side of things - but not having or knowing when I'll get my passport back really sucks. I can't go anywhere which is not something I or my company planned on and it's really making things difficult.

I hate that when you have an important circumstance (like losing your job) and you ask them for some help they basically ignore your situation and give you the same form letter email. Why bother even respond?

arrrgghhhh why can't this process be simpler??????

Wait wait wait

Darryl


That really suxs ... crossing my fingers that they will be expediant :)

CanadaI got my Son into a Great School ....
We're moving into Cleveland into a very mixed community (moderately wealthy to very poor) and a big concern of mine is sheltering my son from as much as I possibly can (coming from a much different area) and that meant making sure he was enrolled into a decent school. The thought of putting him into a local public school terrified me.

He's nine and the school he will be attending is only two years old ... is not on a grade system so they will work with him closely if he's ahead or behind the other children in the class ... small class sizes .. and the principles brother works for the CIA and oversaw the security features in the school. They had a waiting list but squeezed him in after reviewing his last report card knowing he was coming from a ways away. They have a tuition which is affordable. Private school was going to cost me an arm and two legs :)

That's definitely one major worry out of the way :dance:

CanadaChildren and the I-134, Affidavit of Support
Okay ... I'm going through my paperwork to make sure I have things in order ... the I-131 states that a separate affidavit must be submitted for each person.

in question 3 it states "This affidavit is executed on behalf of the following person:

Which I have put my name and address. Where it says "Name of spouse and children accompanying or following to join person:" I have listed my son.

It states under #5 "I am willing and able to receive, maintain and support the person(s) named in item 3. That I am ready and willing to deposit a bond, if necessary, to guarantee that such person (s) will not become a public charge during his or her stay in the United States, or to guarantee that the above named person(s) will maintain his or her nonimmigrant status, if admitted temporarily and will depart prior to the expiration of his or her authorized stay in the United States.

Should I have done a separate I-134 for him listed in question 3 instead of having duplicates notarized?

CanadaTrying to figure out if I can make the July 30th deadline
there is a difference in the form here and the form that my panel physician used

http://www.ait.org.t...docs/DS3025.pdf

instead of stating "U.S. Department of State Vaccination Documentation Worksheet"

it states over in the right hand upper corner "For Use in Canada only" and is called a Vaccination Documentation Medical Worksheet Two"

the DS-3025 says that it is for Use with DS-2053 To Be completed by Panel Physician Only

and mine says "For Use with Main Medical Form To Be Completed by Panel Physician Only"

Oh my goodness ... gonna give meself a bloody headache lol...

I've been taking a look at the paperwork to see if its possible to file the paperwork once I'm approved (much positive thoughts here) and a quicky flight and marriage in Vegas.

Did anyone else here get a DS3025 from their medical? .. all I received was a "Vaccination Documentation Medical Worksheet Two"

Hi Lyric ... I hope all is well with your fiances health (or at least he's well on his way to recovery).

I didn't know if you needed where to go to fill out the DS 156 which now needs to be filled out electronically .. if this is the one that you're looking for, here is its location:

Canadavehicle question
That's really odd ... I just faxed to Honda last week requesting a compliance letter .. I had to fax to them my ownership and drivers license and I've received that letter back in a week no fees involved. This is what the letter says:
