I guess Montreal likes to send them out in large batches since everyone's getting their waybills now :D Congrats everyone!

Edit: Also the CSC website doesn't display my waybill. Guess CSC is unreliable.

I checked the CSC website an hour ago - no waybill number.

Yay for everyone getting their waybill numbers! I hope everyone's POE goes well!

PS: I wish I had found this thread a lot sooner...it helps to know we're not the only ones going through this process.

the CSC website doesn't work, you're going to want to check his email. He would have given CSC an email address in making the account, and you should get any notification of the waybill number there.

Hey, I am on day 9 coming up, when I called the DOS today they said it has not been printed yet and I am in AP. What does that MEAN? I thought approved actually meant we were almost there. I sent the IV unit an email earlier today, hoping they come back with something soon. I'm getting tired of this and being homeless :(

AP usually means nothing... DoS is known to say your visa is in all sorts of stages, including AP, before it's actually been printed.

Unless they told you to submit additional documentation at the interview or, you're birth country is different then Canada you're not in AP, or very unlikely so. Here's a link to athread a few pages back. Read Luvillionois's posts.
