As stated before, the sqeaky wheel gets the ......................... lol . Congrats!!

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

I remember seeing on here an updated version of our timelines, not the one that's on here from Riblet, but the one we had to click on to get to. Someone had redid them and I can't get the search to work.

Does anyone remember what thread it was in?

or even know what I'm talking about? :wacko:

I did those Tinker a few weeks ago............the more I sorted through them the more I realized they weren't as accurate as they could be overall. Based on what I sorted out and the fact several people dont have timelines filled in completely , many were left out of the order.......so it wasn't accurately depicting the order of interviews. At least I didnt think so after looking closer.

at any rate , this was it

Here's the reply to an email I sent Montreal yesterday inquiring about an interview date.

I had stated in my inquiry I saw where people with similar timelines to me were getting interview dates and I was wondering whether I would been scheduled for an appointment soon also

"Unfortunately your appointment still has't been booked. There are many factors when booking an appointment and each case is different.

From the time the file is received and the packet sent. We will advise you by mail once your the appointment is scheduled"

Thank you

Sooooo I got frustrated and said ta hell with it. I may get a funky bug in my bum and try it again before too long......but in the meantime........DO THOSE FRIGGIN TIMELINES PEOPLE :D.

"From the time the file is received and the packet sent"... they take this into consideration, as well? Why is it that they told me that my fiancé is on the waiting list as of March 2nd, considering that they got the petition from the NVC in late November, if that's the case?
