US Embassy and Consulate Discussion129F Forms and Fees - Tip of the Iceberg

I believe I have a pretty good handle on which forms and the associated fees are necessary for filing the petition and those after my fiancee immigrates. It seems there are lots of forms to file and each has its own fee. Do any of the forms required by the Montreal Consolate have a filing fee?


The form's don't specifically but you will pay a visa fee of $100 in Montreal at some point. Of course, you'll pay a fee for the medical exam.


and those would be American dollars.....

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionOmg!!!!! Four month wait for interview at Montreal
It's been good for you so far going through Vermont ... I just got an interview with Montreal for July 18 .. they had my package 3 processed since February 7th ... initial I129f sent September 28th/06 .. there are possibilities that the process may speed up some from package 3 to interview as they are now only processing k visas as of July 9 (or maybe that was June 9th .. I can't quite remember at the moment) ... but they did this due to summer vacations for staff I do believe.

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionChildren & the I-134 - Affidavit of Support
For clarification, I am Canadian and my fiance is the USC. I have prepared the paperwork on behalf of my fiance (I have a few more organizational skills lol) ... we have had the I 134 notarized in Ohio.
lynamonFemaleCanada2007-06-13 17:41:00
US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionChildren & the I-134 - Affidavit of Support
I previously posted in the Canada Forum with no response:

Okay ... I'm going through my paperwork to make sure I have things in order ... the I-134 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?

US Embassy and Consulate DiscussionPacket 3 questions
I do not recall sending pictures when I sent back my package .. it should say in your information that you need to get 5 pics done .. 3 for the medical and 2 to bring with you to the interview (the medical actually only need one .. they will let you know when you book it).

Hope that helps smile.gif

PS. .. the best place to post questions regarding Montreal is in the Canada Forum smile.gif

CanadaQuestion for the Canadian Ladies!

I love having this place to ask you guys these seemingly silly questions... what do you wear to a fancy wedding when it is butt cold ? I am a Sunny California girl, I have no idea how to go about dressing for cold but nice enough for a wedding shindig.

Do people wear pants or pant suits? or do you go with dresses but layers of leggins underneath?

Please give me the skinny. The wedding is in Ancaster at the Old Mill Inn, it looks really pretty (online)


I live in Hamilton (20 min away from the Old Mill) and it is a lovely place for a wedding. The attire will be upscale and I agree with wearing a long dress or a pant suit with a heavier coat ... closed toe shoes and if the dress has straps or is strapless ... a pretty shawl would be a good idea.

CanadaCan we Marry in Vegas?
The (L) of my life and I are trying to decide our best course of action. Currently I am waiting for my divorce to be complete (five years separated) before we can start the paperwork for a K1. After acknowledging the time frame and red tape involved ... we have discussed the option of marrying in the fall in Vegas and applying for a K3 then. He cannot come to Canada so that is not an option ... Has anyone had a similar situation? Are there any problems obtaining a marriage license in Vegas being from another country?

CanadaK-2 and a court order to move?
Thank you :D


Hey Karen,
My court order was good enough. That was a document they wanted to see with the official seal on it. Also, at my interview they told my daughter and my husband to leave and she asked me about the order and some other silly questions about it.


Phew! I figured the court order with seal would be sufficient. Thanks for the info Buttons.

Oh my goodness ... Is the divorce order stating full custody as well as no restrictions on location of childs permanent residence enough? or is a letter from the childs other parent a definite requirement? :o


I would think you are just fine with your order. Especially since it states you have full custody and no restriction on location of the childs permanent residence. :thumbs:

CanadaProof of Immunization

mmmmmm, that is interesting that the doctor said that.... when I got my titres done it didn't cost me anything... :no: but maybe some places do charge... :unsure:

Is it healthy to get the shots again if you already have them?? :unsure:

The Doctor gave them to me so I sure do hope so!!! .. Just for info ... the MMR hurt like someone taking a live cigarette to my arm ... no wonder babies scream their heads off!!
lynamonFemaleCanada2006-11-04 14:28:00
CanadaProof of Immunization
Will they just be requiring the Yellow Immunization Records that the Dr. fills out at their office ... or will I require getting something more formal from public health?

I didn't have my record .. so the Dr. just gave me MMR and Tetanus shots (she said it was cheaper than a blood titre test) and filled out the card ....

CanadaDavid and Karen and Leafgal's interviews
OmG .. sooo very sorry ... I'm hoping that it's just a small hangup for you (F)


Where is David and Karen did they get there's ???????????



It has taken this long for me to sign on.
Thank you all for your interest. The answer is...no. I did not get the visa. I am a mess to say the least. I have typed these few sentences and I am crying again.
I need to file for a waiver. If it is sucessful then the visa is approved. The consular officer seems to think my issue is small potatoes. The timing....anywhere from eight weeks to 12 months. Imagine.
Dunno what else to share. That is the only part of the interview that really matters to me. My visits here will be few in the coming days I'm sure.
Congrats to all that were sucessful in their journey. Best wishes to those of you getting ready to move.
Karen
