It feels pretty good to be done with immigration for a while, I tell ya!

I don't see me applying for citizenship in the next 2 years, but will definitely be applying before too long!

I wonder why it's taking so long for the card? I don't remember it taking that long when we first got it, do you? How did you find out about the card production slowing down?

And that is strange, I figured all that stuff was automatic!

 

Well, let us know when you do receive it or if you had to call.

So renewed my drivers license today - got a new one for 8 years, weird, thought it would only be extended for 1 year as per the extension letter (which they were not interested in seeing, just my green card).

 

Constantly amazed at the somewhat arbitrary way things are done, oh well, at least I got it.

 

Oh I know what you mean; I remember having to go to two different DMV offices when I first got my driver's license because they wouldn't issue it.. 8 years is pretty nice though! Congrats!

 

mandaNchris, I'm sure everything will be fine; the affidavits was a good idea, I didn't even send any! Keep us posted when you get you're notice!

If you have any questions feel free to ask! Just sent anything you feel is pertinent in showing your continued life together; I even sent photocopies of envelopes we've received in both our names at our different addresses. Anything from bills to pictures...

CanadaTime frame of Vermont-NVC-Montreal
I've been looking at everyone's time frames and progress like a hawk. I'm trying to figure out when to visit my fiance in the USA without overstaying my visit. I've looked at Igor's list and the forum's on here but I'm still a bit confused with the time frame from the Vermont to NVC to Montreal. I'm expecting to wait 6 months from NOA 1 to NOA 2. Then I'm expecting a 3 month wait for my interview in Montreal. Should I be calculating another month from when Vermont sends my files to NVC? Is calculating a total of 9-10 months reasonable from NOA1 to Visa in hand? (And if someone moves this to a special forum, send me the link, I can never find them on here lol)I also know these are current estimates and hopefully Vermont keeps up or goes DOWN on their time frame. Hopefully some fellow filers in Texas whose fiance is in Montreal can help me (who've already been approved OR have their interview date..please respond)

CanadaAffidavit of Support for K1 Visa

 

 

Pretty sure the website checklist has been like that since about 2009. I remember seeing the same thing back then when trying to prep for the interview. lol

Thanks, Inky.  I am being very prepared (or trying to be) and it kind of threw me for a loop when I saw the request I-864.  Knowing those who've gone through it, etc...is very helpful.  What would I do without this site? Oh yeah, waste a lot of money on a lawyer dry.png


Hannah777FemaleCanada2013-05-15 18:39:00
CanadaAffidavit of Support for K1 Visa

I'm not expressing myself correctly.  On the Montreal Website it asks for the I-864 for K1 visa.  That's why I put the link up.  But from what I've read on here you don't need that one.  So why are they asking for it?


Hannah777FemaleCanada2013-05-13 10:41:00
CanadaAffidavit of Support for K1 Visa

I was under the impression from reading all the post on here that it's just the i134 but is this a new thing on the Montreal Consulate website?

CanadaAffidavit of Support for K1 Visa

I've read on here that you don't need to do the I-134 until AOS.  But on the Montreal Consulate website it states that you need it for the interview.  Should I do it with the I-864 then?  Is this just for Montreal that they require that?  http://montreal.usco...-checklist.html

CanadaDS 230, question 42. K1

2 Part question:

 

1) Montreal embassy doesn't ask for Part 2.  Do they want it at the interview though?

2)  Question 42-I was denied entry for lack of ties.  Is that all that is needed for the reason or do I need more details?

 

I tried finding the answers but no luck.  This is for K1 Visa.

I would also like to hear how smoothly things seem to be going. Just got our NOA2 (in the huge rush of CSC approvals) and am concerned about having another lengthy wait, this time until the interview.


Haribo, you are exactly who I would like to hear from and those in the last while. Can't wait to find out when your interview is. Hopefully soon!
Hannah777FemaleCanada2013-04-23 19:38:00
CanadaMontreal Interviews 2013

Depends on which Consulate you are going through. Vancouver isn’t as busy so it’s easier for K-1s to make appointments. Montréal can go either way.

I’ve seen many threads where K-1 applicants were waiting for quite a while for appointment timings to open up with Montréal and they were snatched up right away and other times where it seemed easy for people. It all depends on how busy it is when it’s your turn.


The title says Montreal so I would like only those stats. I'm hoping to hear some good news :)

Hi all! I have noticed on the timelines that those in Canada have their interviews months and months away. Any one who has it scheduled, can you comment on here if it's because that is the earliest available OR is it because you need time to pack up and get your affairs ready to move? Some have them scheduled 4-5 months away...seems a bit lengthy. Please let me know for those who've done it in the last 6 months or so (or less). I'm trying to figure out how long this is going to take.
Hannah777FemaleCanada2013-04-23 17:39:00

Go to the immigration timeline, filter Canada, then sort by interview time. Currently the latest interview date in the timeline is 2013-06-27.

hmmm, I don't seem to be getting the info you are. Can you give me a step by step? lol!

MTL doesn't look too busy, with the timelines showing the latest IR1/CR1 interview dates less than a month away, and K-1 interviews in early march, hopefully you won't have a 3-4 month wait :)


Where are you finding your info for the wait times to get an interview in Montreal? I am waiting on the K1 visa and i am trying to figure out how long of a wait it will be from NOA2 to interview.

CanadaHas anybody imported MAZDA from CA to US

Hi, just to let you know my progress-I received my email compliance letter today.  It took a few weeks and you don't get any type of notification that they received your fax but I'm happy to say that I've given myself plenty of time to get it done so it wasn't a stress waiting on it.

Hannah, let me know how your success rate is. I'm working on reverse engineering (e.g., taking my Mazda to Canada).

Hi Autumnal,  I just did a google search as the emails I sent them went unanswered.  Here's a link to the form that needs to be filled out.  Now I just have to find a printer.  http://www.mazdausa....mp_exp_form.pdf

CanadaRed Flagged at Border, anyone else? What are my chances...

Thanks, Hiker girl.  Looks like we will both be living in the south.  I was in SC 2 weeks ago at Myrtle Beach.  The weather is so great!  Think you will miss our winters?  I won't!  lol!


Hannah777FemaleCanada2013-07-09 21:21:00
CanadaRed Flagged at Border, anyone else? What are my chances...

Well I made it across the border.  As soon as my passport was scanned, I was called into secondary (at the airport).  The officer was very friendly and told me:  "If I catch you in one lie, I won't let you across."  I have nothing to lie about so that didn't worry me.  I'm pretty sure he had on his screen the entire conversation-word for word-of what happened at my last border crossing.  It took an hour for him to read through it and to ask me a few questions.  I'm also positive if it wasn't for me having the NOA1 for the K1 Visa, I wouldn't have been able to cross.  He saw that I was trying to do every thing legally.  Sad news is I'm on my way back away from my fiance now and I'm just so sad about it.  Sitting at the airport now.

 


Hannah777FemaleCanada2013-07-09 11:35:00
CanadaRed Flagged at Border, anyone else? What are my chances...

Thanks everyone.  I think I like the post of "the fact that he gave me a list of things to bring back" point.  I'm not too worried about them letting me in in June BUT when I go in September is when I'm really worried, I will buy a return ticket, have all my proof of ties but I'm hoping to stay longer than a couple weeks.  I would like to 'ride out' the rest of this process with my fiance, without overstaying in the usa of course!  I just really don't want them to stamp my passport with a return date unless it's to say 5 months down the road.  Anyone have a crystal ball?  So difficult living like this crying.gif

Well, I'm getting mixed stories (privately and on this forum).  I wish there was an easy answer.  I'm so stressed out about this.
