For people interested, I called DHL/Loomis express and they said the document are usually kept 5 days and returned to sender. Now with the tracking number it is possible to call to tell them to keep the document for longer. As long as I get the tracking number I should be fine hopefully ;)

Or you could

1) ask for ur Passport with visa back the same day of the interview----in a few occasions they have done that, does not hurt to ask,al they can do is say no!

2) Ask Mtl to hold on to your passport and mail it out awhile later, but thats prob playing with fire as it may get lost,lol

Best of luck

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

Call the dhl location that you will be picking it up at and see if they hold packages ... then if yes, after the interview wait for the email from them and then call and request they hold it for you....
