you cant schedule your medical until 3 to 4 weeks before your interview for Montreal. You must have your interview date. (as an aside, your visa date is dated from when you get your medical done..... information i found very valuable... doesnt really apply to many people tho)

To schedule your appointment you must have received your package 3 from montreal and then sent in your docs... then you will get package 4 e-mailed to you and you can book your appointment then. So you have a few steps to go still.

My fiancé had her interview this morning at the consulate in Warsaw. We were approved!! We are both so happy!! What a relief! Although we both had no doubts about the approval, there are always the lingering thoughts of "What if we're not approved... What then?"

Keep strong everyone. It can be a very stressful process at each step. So many unknowns. Thanks Visajourney and all of its members for making the road so much easier to navigate! I pray that everyone gets to see their loved ones soon!

Do we have to wait for something from NVC to finally schedule appt?

Hello! Congrats on getting your NOA2, that's super exciting! Now you have to wait until your case gets to the National Visa Center (NVC), I'd wait a week or two (for your NOA2 date) before you start calling the NVC to get your case number. Once your case is done traveling through the NVC it will be sent to the US Consulate in Montreal. Once it reaches there you need to wait till it updates to "READY" twice - you'll know its updated when you see the date change. This is when you can send Packet 3. If you send Packet 3 too early (like I did) they will ignore you. Please note the Montreal Consulate ONLY answers emails. You can email them to see if they've gotten your case and processed it.

Once you've sent Packet 3, they will reply back with an email. The email is Packet 4 - this will give you all the instructions you need to book your medical and your interview. Save this email - you will need it later. You must book your interview BEFORE you book your medical. When you book your medical they will ask you for your interview date. Luckily, your fiance can do his medical in Toronto. In Packet 4 it will list all the approved doctors who can perform the medical. I believe for Toronto you should give about 5 business days between your medical and your interview in order for it to be ready on time - but the medical office will be able to tell you that. Your fiance will have to pick up in medical results from the office in Toronto before he goes to his interview in Montreal.

Please note: your visa validity will be 6 months from the MEDICAL interview date not the INTERVIEW date! :) So make sure you keep that in mind when you're planning logistics of the move.

I booked my medical over a month out from my interview because I live close to Montreal and I wanted to have the medical out of the way and because I'm a control freak I'm having my medical results mailed to me (for an extra cost).

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions! xxoo

Thanks everyone for the love this morning, it really helped!! I think my medical went really well! I should have my results by Friday! woohoo! If anyone wants information about the medical in Montreal - please message me!
