thanks for the concern guys.i really thought that after NOA2 things will move up fast but its not the case in MOntreal. But i will just think of some positive things like the free healthcare in canada and my future baby will have a dual citizenship.I just dont know why they punish us and enjoy torturing couples who just want to be together.aside from the interview fee of $350, the medical exam cost a lot of money too, its $275 + any additional charge for mailing. this is really too much to handle.

Congrats SimplyMacy. i hope your embassy is not the same as in montreal.
