Really need help please..

[kate13 0]

Good morning,

So our interview in montreal is on Thursday....and as of today, neither my love or I have received the interview/packet 4............. I have email Montreal numerous times and they fimally advised they were sending a second copy to Gateau yesterday and WE can hope the postal service does a good job.

But..I - the organizer of this couple - don't have a clear idea what this letter advises or exactly what documents I need to get together before I leave for Canadf on Wednesday.

Would someone be able ot advise of the list of documents I should be bring along? And please advise if originals or copies are needed?

I don't want to have come so far and fail because of some miscommunication on my part.

Thank you very much for any insight - K

Hopefully, someone will come along to help you out, Kate. Try a search.... I'm sure I've seen quite a number of threads along those lines. (The process has changed since my interview so I can't be much more helpful than bumping your thread.) Good luck on your interview!

I imagine it's easier in Canada than in China.

But, we brought everything we could think of. We were especially strong in evidence of a bonified relationship. All of the materials with the Affidvit of Support were kept by the consulate.

I suggest reading the guides, making certain the forms are completed properly, taking along at least one copy of everything (we took two), taking blank forms, and take everything you have that shows a bonified relationship.

Best of luck to you.
