Thank you!!!

I will follow you posts, because I cant book my interview yet.. get wait a bit.. Petition was sent March 8th..

[moemac59 192]

No problem Eli,

Once I knew that the petition was approved and got confirmation and assigned case number, I sent my packet 3 to Montreal...I didn't even wait for instructions to come in the mail, sent packet 3 by Loomis courier so I could track and then I physco dialed DOS everyday to see if Packet 3 had been logged in the consulate's system and asked if Packet 4 had been sent out yet and where it went. I just got mail for Packet 3 and 4 together last week. If you call DOS make sure you give them the right case number. One operator told me that Packet 4 had gone out and then another one told me that packet 3 hadn't been received after the previous operator told me it had...turns out the 2nd operator put the wrong case number in.

We are all in this together...this is the most frustrating part...trying to book the interview.

Moema59,

Thank you so much.. I am just concerned a bit about my case, I believe its a bit special. cause I am Brazilian living in Canada for 2 years, no PR, legal worker etc.. just gonna wait a bit if they will ask for something in particular besides my work permit :/.. butterflies..

I will be VERY careful when I call and like you, double call DOS eheheh

Good luck to you too!

I agree 100%......waiting for available interview dates is so nerveracking. My fiancee and I are on the webiste contstantly hitting refresh hoping to get a date. There haven't been dates for about a month now so here is hoping they open some really really soon.....today would be nice lol

Guys, I am trying to register on the website.. and when it says:

Case number: what number should I put there ? EAC... or MTL?

I refer to website where we register for the interview and courier etc..

Thanks

Case Number is MTL. I would wait before you register because when I did, something funky happened and didn't give me the option for payment and then I had to email them and got a huge runaround and then they had to send an email with the MVR payment at Scotia Bank...took about a week and half to clear up.

EAC is the receipt number

And it seems like I CANT register for courier till i have my interview date? Is that correct?

When I click to register to courier service it takes me to the page NO appt available at this time.. Is there any other way to register for Courier or I have to wait till I get the interview date?

Thanks

[Elisinha 1]

It seems fine.. I have the MRV number already and it says Markan is my location.. Not that close, but.. its ok..

Ohh, hope I am not in trouble for registering now .. I entered with the right info number etc..thanks

Thanks for the warning, i will be more patient.

There should (at least there was when I signed up on the website) an option to, "register for courier" without hitting any appointment bookings aka: Ready to Permanently Immigrate, Ready to Schedule etc.

It's been a couple months since I did it, though, and they've changed a lot of things around since then. :x

ALSO CONGRATS!

Thanks, Jbel..

I am hiting my head right now

They make it hard, I think, just because they can. >_> It's especially hard for Canadian PRs in comparison to the rest of us. At least you know you can definitely register for DHL when you schedule your interview? Small consolation?

Also, as a note of reference for the future, the letter that you print out/is emailed to you after you schedule your interview and register has your DHL confirmation on it...so when they ask for that...it's on the appointment letter. >_>
