vancouver consulate

[Susan53011 14]

Who will receive the letter from Vancouver consulate, benneficiary or petitioner, regarding time to download and send back packet 3 and will it be via Email or regular mail? I know Vancouver received app on Oct 15, 2013 and neither one of us have received anything nor has it changed from in transit to case ready.

Thanks

Mine still says in transit as well and I haven't received anything. NVC sent it to the consulate on the 11th so maybe i'm batched in with you. I haven't received a letter yet.

Though I'm pretty sure NVC sends you (petitioner) a confirmation letter they sent it, and the beneficiary receives packet 3.

Have the benificary send an email to Vancouver. I had B do that as soon as I saw our case update on CEAC. They replied back saying they hadn't received it yet but once they did, they would email packet 3. A few days later he got the packet 3 email and I received a letter in the mail from NVC stating they forwarded the petition to Vancouver.

I emailed per your suggestion and they said that she has to go through Montreal unless she has a valid work visa that has at least a year remaining, which it does, i am confused now. CEAC even says case ready and to schedule with Montreal. This is crazy, i dont know if I should keep inquiring about Vancouver or just move forward with Montreal. I should be happy that it is finally case ready but the trip to vancouver was going to cost 1/3 the price of going to Montreal. ughhhh Plus I was going to drive up from Las Vegas to be prepared to bring her home with me after approved. There goes that plan

What is your case number - VAC or MTL? We are Vancouver, but the CEAC said ready to book interview at Montreal. I just think that's yet another govt quirk with wrong info. As a matter of fact, our status still says that and we've got the interview & medical booked.

I would go out on a limb and say if you have a VAC number, you're definitely going through Vancouver. Unless Vancouver doesn't realize she has the valid work authorization, I'm not sure. Maybe it's because you, the petitioner, emailed instead of her, the beneficiary? It could also be because of her country of origin, where is she from?

Sorry about the lack of actual help, but I do wish you guys the best of luck!

its a VAC #. NVC was helpful but also specculating so I will email Montreal as well to see what is going on. based off what NVC said, Montreal will issue a new case number etc if this is the case. I am hoping Vancouver will reply and let me know whether or not they forwarded my app or still have it. But you said the CEAC website says the same thing about your case?
