:blink: Their interview is TODAY?! (Just checked the spreadsheet) And we were waiting since the end of April and only just had ours on Wednesday (two days before theirs)... that's absolutely crazy! Still not complaining though, after all we were approved and looks like we'll be getting our visa TODAY! (L)

I believe in faeries.

For anyone living on the West Coast, the Robert's Creek Faeries and Fools once a year is a must.

I made the most beautiful transluscent wings....

I do digress...Liz, my time line is now done and we are added to the stats.

I was still figuring out how to navigate here.

Question: I have a certified copy of my divorce certificate; will I need my old marriage certificate as well for this next part, and/or for the interview? I hunted around and did not find a clear answer. (Sorry to repeat.)

I don't think you'll need the old marriage certificate..

and as soon as you get and send back your packet 3, i'll add you to my spreadsheet

Does anyone have experience with this?

I cannot seem to find any clear info on whether I need to order a marriage certificate from my previous marriage.

How did Nick & Clau manage to get such a gift?

I looked at your time-line for K1s Liz.

Wow.

Wow.

I've never seen a form that asks for a previous marriage certificate, only divorce certificate. (I can't speak to the K visas but for the IR1 it is never asked for).

Depends on whether you're going through Vancouver or Montreal. Vancouver requires it along with your divorce decree/whatever it's called but Montreal (someone correct me if I am wrong) only requires the divorce decree.

From the Vancouver checklist (for K3, I'm sure it's the same for K1 but probably says, "if you or your fiance"):

Divorce and Death Certificates: If you or your spouse were married previously, obtain one certified copy of your marriage certificate(s), and one certified copy of the divorce decree, annulment, or death certificate to prove the dissolution of each such prior marriage. The certificate must show that it is an extract from official records and must bear the seal of the issuing authority.

Thank you all very much.

I am in Montreal almost walking distance to the U.S. consulate....maybe 20 - 30 minute walk.

Yes, I already checked it out a few months ago when I found myself in that neighbourhood.

I am positively giddy! I just got off the phone with NVC.

A super kind woman told me that they received our package/petition.

Yippeeeee!!!

She told me to allow 2-4 weeks for the consulate to get it.

Thank you VJers for your ongoing presence and support. (F) (F) (L)(F) (F)
