congrats

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

You know what I just remembered, a thread started by Igg saying "Guess what I got ..." , and the first thing that came to my mind was that they got their interview date. But it turned out that it was a hat, believe you me, I liked that hat but this interview date is way way way better than that haha

I am really happy for y'all !!!

Congratulations! I sure hope this is the start of a big CR-1 push for interviews - you guys have waited so long and it is more than about time. Good luck!

“...Isn't it splendid to think of all the things there are to find out about? It just makes me feel glad to be alive--it's such an interesting world. It wouldn't be half so interesting if we knew all about everything, would it? There'd be no scope for imagination then, would there?”

Congrats on your interview date.

Life Is Too Short,

Break The Rules, Forgive Quickly,

Kiss Slowly, Love Truly,

Laugh Uncontrollably,

And Never Regret Anything

That Made You Smile.

Life May Not Be The Party

We Hoped For,

But While We ' re Here, We Should Dance...

Aw thanks guys! I just wanted to tell you all too, that I hope everyone gets their date soon, I hope no one has to wait a huge, long time in between finishing and the interview or whatever you call what the K1s do.

Now that my fingers have freed up a bit, I'll cross them now for everyone else waiting. I'll keep a couple for us for the last remaining steps we have but yeah, I hope this means that Montreal is moving again and that normal processing times will resume.

Krikit, your map, it brought good luck!

Guys, I don't know if the map gave us luck, but I got home tonight and opened my lap top to an email from the NVC telling me my interview date! We got a date for January 26th at 8:30am!

I got so freaked out that i mistyped my password here as many times and got locked out for 14 minutes. I called my husband first and he was driving and we're thrilled!

You guys are great and anyone else in my time frame, check your email or call. the funny thing? I called this morning and was told no go!

WOW. Just WOW. Finally! The sense of relief and everything is overwhelming....
