You're not nuts and everyone goes through this!!

Where is your interview? Mine was in Vancouver and they were nice, nice, nice!!!

Just go over everything you have that you need to bring. Keep it all organized. I had folders for proof of relationship; for finances; etc. I keep them all neat and tidy. The woman that interviewed me was impressed! And be confident. They're not going to ask you anything you can't answer :)

Smile!!! and ....this sounds funny..breathe...

You'll do great!!! :)

I think she's talking about the express post envelope that Montreal applicants need to get their visa mailed to them. You won't need that -- Vancouver typically does next day visa service :)

Good luck! I am sure you will rock it -- just like Joyce said, there won't be a question that you can't answer. I look forward to reading your successful review!

I know I'm a CR1 but I think I can honestly say, you are NOT nuts and EVERYONE goes through this.

You'll be fine.

I keep having this horrible fear that they'll ask me a question and I'll sit there like a dumb-dumb totally drawing a blank regarding something I know!

Same here! My fiance will be with me there and I am also paranoid that HE will draw a blank and it will look like our entire relationship is a big farce.

In conclusion ... I think our fears are normal :P hehe

I brought mine. I wasn't able to stay for the next day and pick up my visa so they mailed it to me.

That's one nice thing about Vancouver. You CAN pick up your visa the next day in the afternoon. I did my interview on Tues, my medical on Wed. and couldn't afford to stay two nights, which is why they mailed mine back.

I know I'm a CR1 but I think I can honestly say, you are NOT nuts and EVERYONE goes through this.

You'll be fine.

You're going to do well. You've gotten so much information that you are going to just floor those interviewers!!

In conclusion ... I think our fears are normal :P hehe

Same with you :) you'll be fine with your interview.

That's wonderful!! I had mine last June and thought that after my medical, ( which was done about 8:00 or so in the morning) I would go to Granville Island. Ummmmm it POURED that day, and I left home in such a hurry I forgot my coat!! So I went back to my hotel room and slept!! :lol:

Enjoy Vancouver. It's such a pretty city. I hope the weather will behave itself for you....
