For DOS, call 202-663-1225. Press 1 and then 0. A "visa specialist" will come on. Then tell him/her that you had your interview on so-and-so date in Montreal and were wondering if your visa had been printed yet. They'll then ask for your case number. They might also ask for your name or other info, but definitely your case number.

Hurry though if you're gonna call today as they close at 5pm ET which is in under an hour.

calling now :) my wait time is approximately 10 min

does the phone just ring for 10 min while I wait?

Call ahead to the PoE and let them know your plans. That way they can try to make sure someone is on shift at that hour who knows how to do a K-1. In the worst-case scenario, you could be stuck there

Lol, I don't know. I usually got through right away or within a minute or two. Can't remember if it rang the whole time or not.

My list was very basic. Just say "toiletries and cosmetics". Don't need to be detailed. Just give the category. I wasn't even asked for my list at POE. And I don't think my dad's car was searched either. But I wanted to be safe than sorry.
