Totally understandable...BUT...totally unnecessary! You'll do great!

I hope so...I'm pretty prepared, just no 2009 taxes. Wyatt, send me good vibes while I freeze outside tomorrow. :lol:

Seeing as 2009 Taxes aren't due for another 3 weeks, I don't see how they could require them.

True enough. It's just, I don't know what I'll do if I'm not approved. I haven't seen my husband since July 09, if we're approved, I'll see him in a week. GAHH.

Well thanks everyone for the well wishes and for putting up with me.

LOTSOFLOVE.

Yeah...don't sweat the taxes issue. Rob's right. A W2 would have been a good touch, but even THAT likely won't be necessary. Nothing but the best of vibes to you!

Pfft... how did the Vent thread get on page 2? Are people happy today or something? What's that about?

Anyways, here's my rant. We sent our AOS papers on Tuesday via Expresspost, and their guaranteed delivery date was yesterday by 3pm. However, the usps online tracking system finally updated and says it just got through the Chicago sorting facility last night at 2:22am, so they clearly won't receive it until today. I'm seriously irritated. It was NOT cheap to send that envelope the speedy way, so now we have to go through the trouble of demanding our money back since they suck.

Plus, now we definitely won't get the NOA1 before my I-94 expires, which I was really hoping for. UGH.. :angry: (I know I'm getting a flood of ppl saying that doesn't matter, but I still wanted it ok! I WANTED IT! *stomps feet*)

I'm like 0/15 on Roll up the rim to win at Tim Hortons!!!!!!!

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

Two days ago I decided to try and OTC sleepaid.

What I didn't realize was until I wiki'd it that it's just the antihistamine found in benadryl.

I'm so used to H1 receptor antihistamines that I had the worst sleep for 2 weeks last night. I honestly think my body is like allergic to them or something.

I hope I can see a doctor soon on my husband's work plan :crying:

Good thing they didn't cost a fortune.
