We are filling out the I-129F and I am going to be finishing my masters in September in Vancouver. I was planning on moving home to Ontario until the K-1 Process is complete. I am not sure whether or not I should put Vancouver or Montreal for where my package should be sent too? I have read online you must be residing on the western side of Canada to have your package sent there. Which may not be the case as I might be in Ontario before then. Have any Canadians dealt with this?

unofficially--some have gave a Western province addy so they could have the interview in Van(as its a much speedier consulate)---when in reality they were living in an Eastern provinvce.

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

After thinking/ talking about it.. We decided I will likely just stay in Van until the interview.. That being said I will move in Van twice before the interview.. For my address on the 129 can I put my UPS box address(in Van)? or just call USCIS and change it when I do move?

Go with Vancouver if you can. When it was time to book my interview last month, I could get it scheduled in 2 business days, it was nuts.
