It is for April 23 :dance:

trailmix-I took your advice and emailed Montreal again after that one email I received from them. They emailed back saying our interview is on April 23 and we will get a letter. Thanks for the suggestion to email them again :thumbs:

I am so beyond excited! I want to laugh, cry, scream. I am just happy and nervous all at the same time. I pray we have enough to prove domicile and I pray that dh's police record isn't going to cause a problem.

Super news!!

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
