K-1 people waiting for interviews at Montreal

[SapphireDreams 71]

I actually looked at mine the other day and I only put 10 years. I don't know why... I should've just put 50 years or something. I'm sure it doesn't really matter in the end. I'm not that worried about it. I have no idea where I'll be in 10 years... haha...

Thanks for the replies gals =) I think we're gonna go with the 50 years choice, lol. And I think we put in the receipt number from the NOA, but we're going to change that to the MTL number, since others have used it and there was no problem. Go with success eh?

We still haven't finished it because my fiance doesn't have a printer, lol. So he's going to try printing it out on a library computer or something..if that doesn't work I suppose he'll just have to go get himself a printer!

Have a good weekend all!

P.S is it just me or has everyone spent the last 3 weeks or so before the interview in a state of heightened emotions? It seems like I cry at the drop of a hat, have NO patience, and am just an overall ball of nerves lately....no fun =(

hey guys...i just wanna ask those who have gone to their interview..how much papers you guys brought along with you?..my interview is next week, and i'm getting paranoid on organizing my paper works..my file of phone calls alone is very thick,not to mention the letters,pictures and itineraries of my fiance's flight... so i was just wondering how much did you guys have to bring?

HELLO FROM RALEIGH 5 1/2 hrs late, but I got in on Tuesday..although my customs agent LOOKED very scary, she was joking with me by the end of it...told me how to remove conditions in 2 years and all that

Angie - I brought all the evidence that you mentioned above, but he didnt ask to SEE any of it. He gave me back the pictures I had sent with my original I129F application and asked me about them briefly, but did not ask for any other supporting evidence. So I think you will be fine with what you have...it's better to have it than not, but I dont think you will need much more than you mentioned.

Congrats!!!

You will be FINE, I promise...easiest part of this whole damn process in my opinion!!! Let us know if there is anything you are worried/unsure about.

Thanks! I do have a couple of questions that I can't think of right now. Oh one of them... do I need his original passport and divorce papers and stuff? I am not sure how comfortable I would feel having my passport out of my possession, so that seems a little weird (he has no birth certificate)

What I am more worried about though is stuff like selling my house (or moving without it sold), quitting my job that I have been at for 12 years, unsure if I am going to take my cats or ask the previous owner if they want them back (gave them up due to pregnancy and worried about whatever that virus is called)..... so many things that need to happen soon! I guess before I had a date I was just thinking that it's going to happen sometime, but now that there is a date (that is way sooner than expected) everything needs to happen now!

Today I seriously went from being so happy and excited that I felt like I wanted to break into song and dance in the middle of my office to feeling pretty freaking overwhelmed!

I am going there on the weekend though and I am sure things will seem easier to deal with after that because whenever I come back from there I feel like I am leaving home

Sorry to ramble on about this stuff when I should just be glad to have a date. I seem to have turned into somewhat of a nutcase since this morning! Hopefully this will pass but I am afraid it will get worse!

I think everyone gets a little overwhelmed when you get the date..it seems so long in the coming that you can't even believe it. Just have a copy of his passport (they did not ask to see Bo's Birth Certificate at all), but I would have the original and a copy of the divorce decree - the woman that was there at the same time as me had to show both, obviously leaving the copy with them. Make sure you have copies of everything, including your own passport. They can do it there, but it's just easier if you already have one for them.

I found that lists helped me keep myself more calm. Know what you have to do and try and plan it all out. Pick a day you're going to cancel things, switch things, pack etc. I did not have a house to sell, but I can empathize with the situations. I left my cats home - my parents took them, but that was due to the fact Bo is hard-core allergic If you can take them, and your fiance is ok with it, I would consider it...nice to have familiar things around and keep you company while he's working. You will have to see what you would need to do and what paperwork they would need depending on how you are travelling.

Yay that is amazing news. I bet I have a date too. I think I'll try calling them tomorrow.

Yeah absolutely call! Someone (I thought it was you but could be wrong) mentioned that it seemed like they set appointments on the second Tuesday of the month so I specifically called today and totally prepared myself for disappointment so I was pretty much shocked when I heard her giving me a date!

My packet 3 was so long after yours that if you don't have an interview when you call, I would somehow check into that further. Not sure how though... seem to be really difficult to deal with, to say the least

[bauser 0]

That's the best news I've heard all week... I'll put in a call today. Did they give any indication as to when you'd receive the letter in the mail?

[SapphireDreams 71]

I got my interview!!

March 18
