Hey.. being annoyed and frusterated with MTL and this whole process is understandable. We all know how you feel so no apologies necessary.

Since he sent back packet3 in Feb its looking like he should have the interview in July. So you guys are almost there :)

Good luck :thumbs:

Good luck with the expedite request. I'm pretty sure they prioritize scheduling by when the checklist is returned, not the packet 3 date (why would they schedule you when you're not ready before other people who have returned everything?), so you might be out of luck since the delay in returning the checklist was on Réjean's end.

The medical issue might help, though, if they have a cancellation or something.

The fee increase sucks. Due to all of our wedding shenanigans, we'll probably be able to file August 4th or 5th but not by the end of July (wedding on the 20th, time to submit forms to the county, time to get the forms mailed to Connecticut, time to get the paperwork sent off puts us at around two weeks after the wedding, earliest.)

We had all the paperwork done in December, so we were already ready. Now that it's June, we may have to redo all of it. And Réjean sending back the checklist a month later was only part of it. He never even got Packet 3 until 2 months later, and that's only because he went to the Consulate and picked it up!

Thanks for the kind words, everyone. I'm sorry if my replies are on the bitchy side. I can't even come to this site anymore because it upsets me too much.

Wonder why I didn't get the benefit of the doubt like that. Hmm...odd, that.

Anyways...if it's tough now how will it be when he gets to the states? He'll still have to pay that 200 bucks a month won't he? Does he expect you to support him?

PS leave it to Greyhound to screw things up for you. Sorry they did that.

My fiancé originally said that there was an arrangement made to where he could delay payments from the time he comes here to the time he gets the work permit. However, with this delay, he's confident he'll be paid up by the time he gets his interview.

Now THAT sucks. Hang in there and know you have us - who are equally insane but equally adorable :wacko:

Thanks for the good wishes.

It's especially hard tonight. It's my birthday, and he was supposed to be here by now to celebrate it with me.

Thanks for the good birthday wishes, everyone.

Things are starting to get better. The temp job that I had been working for the past 5 weeks or so has ended, but the employment agency found another one for me that pays WAY better and is a temp-to-hire position!!! It starts on Thursday, so I'll have a few days to rest before it begins. Plus this job pays more than enough to be able to support the two of us on, and get this... it's a government job! I am so relieved that I might have something permanent again.
