Canada	Guess Who's Birthday Is Coming Up On Saturday	QUOTE (IR5FORMUMSIE @ Sep 24 2009, 08:55 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I thought that I'd invite everyone to wish my dear sister a Bonne Anniversaire. She gets a bit upset when people forget it and takes it out on her poor put-upon brother. It took me months to heal last time so please wish her a Happy Birthday. HAPPY BIRTHDAY SIS. Happy Birthday on Saturday!!! Hope you have a great day.	sdw	Female	Canada	2009-09-24 20:08:00

Canada	visa approved YAY!	QUOTE (domegirl1978 @ Sep 28 2009, 12:05 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hi everyone! Went for my interview today and this is the low down on what happened. I live in Montreal so I left at 6:20am from my house and was at the Consulate waiting at the door by 6:45am. There was 1 other woman there at that time and then another woman showed up. The first doing a CR-1 and the second doing a K-1 as well. I told the first lady they would not let her in with her phone and bag but she decided to chance it and was told by the guard to take it back to her hotel. That sucks. I spoke to a couple of other peopl in line and none of them had heard of VJ and a lot of them seemed to be unsure that they had everything. They took my passport and packet 4 letter that has the interview letter on the last page. I found it odd that they wanted the whole packet 4 and not just the last page but I gave it to them. They looked through my papers in my file folder. I then went through the metal detector and was told to go through a door and downstairs to a waiting room where the elevator is to take you up to the 19th floor. The guard only took 6 of us up the first time. After that the elevators were jam packed full of people but mostly going to the opposite side of where I was told to sit. We were told to sit on the furthest side away from the cashier next to where the vending machines are. They called my name and I went to the window they told me to and the gir behind the window was a young black lady who was SUPER nice. She asked me for all kinds of things like passport pictures, the ds-156 and ds-156k, birth certificate and certified translated copy, the I-134 and all supporting documents, the medical,the expresspost envelope, the police certificate, i reminded her about the ds160 (she forgot) lol, and i'm sure i'm forgetting something else they asked me for. Then she says to me oh no!, the ds-156 has to be filed out by computer and i freaked in my head. Then I calmly said, well it says ON the ds156 that it can be typed or printed...i went with printed. She said no worries...there is a computer outside in the sitting area. Just redo it and press print 2 times and it will print at her printer. I did it and returned to her window and signed the new copy. She fingerprinted me and then said to pay the cashier and come back with the receipt. I went to the cashier and paid and for the one dollar of the 131$ i had it in 4 quarters. Oh no. They don't take that. So I had to ask the people in the crowd for change. HAHA. Embarassing. Went back to the first lady again and she said all was in order and to wait for my interview. They called my name and I walked into room 7 where a VERY nice young lady asked me to take the oath and then asked me how my fiance and i met, what we both do for a living, about my old schooling in the states and my time living there. She also my asked my future plans for employment, if I had ever been denied entry or had problems with immigration and when I planned on getting married. It was probably a little more than 5 minutes and 10 questions and she made me sign the ds-156k and said I was approved. She handed me 2 pieces of paper and said I would get my visa most probably by Friday with my paperwork and passport. I thanked her profusely, walked out of the building, met my mom at the car, told her I was approved and got all excited. Drove home and called my man and we had a great talk on the phone. All in all, go organized and you'll be fine. The CR-1 couple, they had a lawyer. Little did they know they needed the expresspost envelope and the husband had to leave and buy one at Pharmaprix. The K-1 lady was missing paperwork and had to fill out a lot at the computer in the waiting area. Lots of people were complaining they didn't know they had to have something. I was lucky enough to have pleasant people help me. I was really stressed before the interview until this morning where I suddenly relaxed a little and it really was painless. Next step is deciding tonight what date we are getting married at the courthouse so our families can coordinate and his parents want to also throw a party of about 60 people so we need to get that straightened out and I'm looking at plane tickets and getting ready to really give my notice tomorrow. Very exciting! Congrats	sdw	Female	Canada	2009-09-28 18:44:00

Canada	Funny things to declare over the US/Canada border...	QUOTE (Emancipation @ Nov 12 2009, 05:47 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ahhh good times.. I once was put in secondary after a trip to Wales (coming back into Canada from my trip).. they asked me what food I was declaring.. I said ketchup and chocolate (curry ketchup for my mum and chocolate for me).. the officer looked at me and said with a straight face "are you pregnant?".. ha ha.. it was a great moment...

Canada	IR1/CR1 interviews at Montreal next week	QUOTE (LeprechaunSean @ Nov 25 2009, 09:31 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> OK I'll give a real short version right now and a long one when I get back home. Good news is, we're approved and picking our visa up in a few hours! Bad news is montreal may not be as safe as you think, when I'm dealing with crackhead carjackers right outside the consolate at 7:00am on a tuesday morning. Police came, had to give statements, got pulled out of the line up (didn't delay us too long) so yeah, interesting morning. Details to follow tommorrow night. I'm taking the fam out to the biosphere right now. Congrats about visa! Crazy about carjacker	sdw	Female	Canada	2009-11-25 09:38:00
