My husband is the Canadian Forces until April of 2014. Although we just filed our I-130 this January, we are starting to gather all of our supporting documentation. Is it correct that he will need to provide a copy of his Military Record to NVC? Does anyone have experience with this? Is it easy to get?

He is fortunate that he is stil in as that makes things easier. I got out in 2005, so my brain my be fuzzy on the terminology, but its the document that is like his resume, believe it uses to be called an Unit employment record (UER), no, I think its the MPRR. If you do a search on VJ for Canadian military documents, you will find it, as there have been a few others. its 0430,no coffee yet, so barely functioning,lol

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 was actually stil inthe Air Force at the time of my interview, and I got the visa. There was 1 other cdn that was still in at the time of their interview, but MTL would not issue it unitl he released.

correct terminology: MPRR (Military Personnel Record Resume)

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