I finally got my K1 visa and POE envelope in the mail today, 9 days after my interview.

I foolishly booked my flight before receiving my visa, but it all worked out. I am leaving for the airport at noon and just got my visa at 11:30 this morning!

WOW! Talk about stress!!! It all worked out though! My bags are packed and I am sooo ready to go!

I'll write a review of my POE at Toronto Pearson when I am safe and sound in California. I can't believe I get to see my fiance tonight :dance:

My POE was so easy! Toronto Pearson didn't seem busy today (?!?!). I was the only one waiting in secondary. The officer was very friendly and joked about Montreal being so slow. He didn't even look through my bags or the list of items I had printed out.

I have loads of time to kill now and am anxiously awaiting my flight.

Best of luck to all of the rest of you August interviewees! All of this waiting is so worth it!

Like my fiance said to me the other day, "we've already hit the home run, now we're just going over the bases. Maybe we'll trip a little, but we'll make it to the plate soon enough."

That is, by far, the greatest quote ever. Your fiance wins for having the amazing ability to mix mushy sentiment with baseball. Congrats on your POE! :)
