At least they left a msg!!

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

Hey Mel - Do you remember how long it took to get packet 3 from Montreal once NVC sent it to them? I am anxiously waiting for packet 3 right now :>

I think it took about three and a half weeks. If you can find the signature in my other sn (melytha) it shows the dates. I'm using two computers and both are signed in automatically... had some issues with a password a few days ago and haven't fixed it yet so I can post from the same name from both computers!!! I was kind of anxious about receiving Packet 3 too... they said they sent Packet 3 on April 12 but I didn't get it in the mail until April 23rd. Also, NVC said they sent to Montreal in early April so it took a few weeks for Montreal to get the packet together I guess.

You can email the Montreal consulate and ask if they sent you your packet yet; that's what I did!
