I will write a review of my interview once i get back home. For now let me share a bit of my big smile?!

thank you dwells , saylin, and to others who helped me to go through with the process. it took 2 and half hour to get it done.

waiting time was 2 hours but the interview was only 5mins with 3 questions for me and one for my husband.

Thorough review will be later!

It brought me tears when I realized I dont have my original documents?. I was totally devastated to think on how to get those back because I submitted also my original docs that I need here in Canada. I was organized and prepared but after the interview news i forgot my documents! ? IO didnt remind me either? poor pregnant woman ? hahahaha! oh well i am very happy though after all, this journey is almost over!

Dear belllez214, I really feel for you about your original documents as I know how important it is to not lose them. Let me tell you what I would do. I would just call the Embassy (we are able to call directly as it is a small Embassy) or go straight to it and make such request. I have no idea how big your Embassy is. Ours is very little and I would really feel comfortable to go to the guards cubicle even without an appointment (the guards can call to the consular service about it) and ask for my originals before the staff put them to archives.

Bellez214 check in the Canadian forum to see if the originals are returned with your Visa packet. I know many embassies do that. So hang on okay.

I would like to go back the moment i realized it but was too late coz we have to fly with my family back to toronto for me and my family to San Francsico.

I called NVC and I spoke to Rose and she gave the direct line but unfortunately the Embassy does not answer telephone queries so only email.

I emailed the Us em Montreal and Only acceptance receipt received. ?

Bellez214 check in the Canadian forum to see if the originals are returned with your Visa packet. I know many embassies do that. So hang on okay.

I was hoping that to be heard from Rose ( NVC) and she told me that originals should be returned right away after interview but because it happened she told me to call them only and asked for it. ?

I just wonder why NVC is not scheduling Lagos interviews. There are many CCs since early June still awaiting interview dates whereas a Visa Officer from Lagos Consulate said they had sent interview slots for August and September to NVC since the first week of this month. I am just having a feeling that NVC is deliberately holding up our cases. Not cool at all.

Because there was a bunch of CC's still in May that got the August slots and August was full up after that. Now we wait for September. Why would NVC withhold anyone from interviews from an embassy unless the embassy tells them to.

Hopefully some embassies will start September.

Like earlier stated August really is Tourist and Student month very few CR1/IR1 slots are ever open. I predict that CC's will start about the June 9 and stop at about June 14. Usually its about 1 week.

The reason why I said NVC holds cases up is because I got an approval from Lagos consulate to expedite the process. So I called NVC to ask if they had sent the case to Nigeria for interview but the person I spoke with told me a supervisor is "reviewing it to verify that the case is documentarily complete". And I was like: That is just ridiculous. What is there to review again? The status is obviously showing in their system that the case is completed since June so I just don't understand what they are doing. What made me mad the most was the customer rep telling me that the "review" could take up to 30-40 days. Imagine that!
