I guess we'll never really know why they do what they do behind closed doors. The best you can do is fill it out and send it over ASAP and hope for a really fast response. The few people that have gotten this form out of Montreal have gotten their Visas approved within a few months. Good luck! 

Wow it takes that long? Few months?

Sadly it takes a long time! This form consists of "extra vetting" so it takes them a while to complete. People in a lot of Middle Eastern countries have been waiting 6 months to over a year for any word after being given this form. I'm pretty sure it doesn't take as long in Canada. You can check out this thread below.

Did anyone happen to get a request for a form DS-5535? My fiancé had his interview this morning, and was told that he was approved. Then later today got an email with a request for that form. Any help is appreciated. I have been trying to go through the forums trying to get more info...

 

he got a pink pink slip stating he was approved. 

Please keep us posted. Praying for you guys!

Yes, born in Canada. And he has never been outside of Canada/USA. 

Who received the email? You or him? 

[LOve17 87]

From experience, when did everyone send in their P3? Did you wait for an email or did you wait for a second ready? Thanks.

I waited about two weeks. Then I sent it in even if I didnt get the letter yet. About the day after I sent off my P3 via email, I got the P3 letter from in the mail.

He received the email shortly after his interview. He’s almost done filling out the paperwork and will be getting it emailed back to the consulate within the next day or two.

Does anyone know if there are any August interview dates left? If not, has September opened up...or when will it?

That is everything. I just had my interview today. They never wanted to see my proof of relationship,  of ds-160, not even my i-129f. I had them all though just in case.

How long ago did he fill out the DS-160? Did he have to include all his social media info when he filled it out? If I'm understanding right, the new DS-160s now ask for all (or most?) of the info that is in the DS-5535 per a new policy, so it could simply be that he just missed the new DS-160 so they are asking for that same info in retrospect. I could be wrong but that's just my guess. I wouldn't stress too much about it.

Just double checking - they want Canadian passport-sized photos, right? U.S. passport-style photos are a slightly different size.

 

EDIT: found the size requirements in Packet 4 (5cm x 5cm or 2 inch x 2inch)

found info to my question

[Lori Johnson 35]

Has anyone imported a vehicle to US yet?   Any tips?   I know you need letter of compliance from mfg, which I have.  Do the daytime running lights need to be disconnected?  Someone who imported vehicle 7 years ago told me that, but maybe it’s changed.  I haven’t seen anything in my research to that effect.  I also understand you do NOT need to change instrument cluster to mph to import it, but that may cause an issue with the buyer if trying to sell.  Unfortunately my car is foreign in kms only and the speedometer is not electronic.  Any advice is greatly appreciated!

US sized passport style photos. You're immigrating to USA not Canada.
