Montreal received ours Dec 13, the next day CEAC changed to "Ready" so we emailed Packet3, turns out we sent too early. This morning we received this email: 

 

What are your experiences? I've read here that some don't even receive P3?

It took about a week and a half after the CEAC changed to "Ready" for me (beneficiary) to receive P3 in the mail. CEAC was "Ready" Sept 25, and P3 was received Oct 5.

Just throwing our case in the ring. We also got the "Ready" status on 12/10 and sent Packet 3 on 12/11. We got the same email. Still haven't received packet 3 and haven't tried to email the embassy again.

12/10 "ready" here as well. How far are you from Montreal? We are Vancouver, womp womp, who knows how long post is taking to cross the country these days.... 

 

I feel like this is our week for receiving P3

Also - we have nearly IDENTICAL timelines 😁

Glad that we were not the only ones to send P3 early! Our "Ready" status shows a last update of 12/18, used to be 12/13.

Still no P3

Twinning! We got an update on the CEAC website for 12/17 (previously 12/13) so hopefully the P3 is coming this week.

 

To those who've received the P3, did it come in the mail?

We also had an update on 12/12 but nothing since then.

Man I hope it doesn't come in the mail.  It's 2018; who checks the mail?!

Wow the DS-160 is a pain in the be-hind. Yesterday was a fun day entering in 52 different U.S. visits with the site timing out every 5-10 minutes, on every browser, on two different computers 😂

Mine no longer wants to let me enter additional US visits; I added my last nine and now "add another" is greyed out.

YUP this was happening for us too - if you remove the last one you put in, the 'add another' button will work again. Very frustrating.

 

Are you also hitting issues where if you add a "less than 24 hours" it removes the amount of days from your very first entry? Every time we added a less than 24 hour entry that would happen and then it would yell at us when we tried to save.

Oh! Thanks; I will try that! I also love how there’s no time boundary on it; let me just add that trip to Disney when I was 12 lol.

 

I don’t have any trips of less than 24 hours (that I can remember!) so I haven’t encountered that problem.

Our case is finally headed to the Embassy - we're at "Ready" now!  Lawyer is telling me we don't really need to do anything until the consulate contacts us, but now that we have a case number I thought we could schedule her medical and consulate interview, get her passport pictures, start on some forms..?

 

@d24v are we really going to have to enter all of her visits to the US? My fiancee has details for her trips from the last 5 years, but not before that..

What @debbiedoo said about this made the most sense to me - make sure to account for everything on your I94 but after that, worry less. I think the reality for Canadians is that you’re a lot more likely to have far more border crossings than most other countries.

For all of us here who has a case status of "Ready" around Dec 13 and awaiting P3, has anyone received them? We have not received anything yet. I'm tempted to re-send the completed P3...

FYI for those of you who are "in transit" from NVC! Your Happy New Year packages have arrived to the MTL consulate by end of day, today.  Congrats and best wishes on the next part of your journey.
