It's 3.75$ (for a 2 zone pass) until 6pm, so not just during peak hours. :P

Must my armor ALWAYS have a chink in it? Sigh.

I swear, you must have gone ahead and fact-checked every letter and punctuation point in my post. :P

I am the service member in this thread. First I would like to thank everyone for your advice. It has really helped. Now I have a question. The 129F asks for our "address where you intend to live". I recently found out that I may be moving from Maryland to Virgina. Would it be best if I use my Home of Record address (which is my parents address)? Will using my HoR cause heart ache because it's not my home address??

It's best to be completely and brutally honest on these forms, and not to try to equivocate. If you sincerely don't know where you will be living, answer something like "Unknown - Future husband may be relocating due to military service" or words to that effect. It's always better to give an honest answer plus a short explanation than to give a potentially false or misleading answer.

I guess it depends when you have to PCS to Virginia. If you are going to be living in Maryland for the next few months you file the I 129f then just use that address. Your application would go to VT service center no matter if you file in either state.

My husband and I filed the I 129f in ND about 1.5 mos before he PCS'd to a diff state. It definitley is a risk doing that because it took over a month for our NOA's to come. ( cutting it close) Not everyone waited as long as us for NOA's though. We did a petitioner change of address soon after and everything worked out fine for us.

Good luck!

Vancouver is also alot more flexible in their scheduling, their packet 3 includes a line that you can request what interview date would work for you. Not always guaranteed or granted, but if a certain day of the week works better for you its that much better.

If only they could do CR-1 visas out of Vancouver...

Sigh.

Not to steal the thread, but where do the CR-1 interview happen? My husband lives outside of Calgary.

ALL CR-1 interviews happen out of Montreal, unfortunately.

I learned that for the first time on VisaJourney too. :(
