My interview is scheduled for this Friday and I was just going over everything to make sure all is in order. Just noticed that my fiance filled out an I-134 that was downloaded from uscis website and NOT the one that was issued by the Montreal Consulate. Am I panicing for nothing??? This whole process is draining me!!! I'm about to go crazy!!!:(

Thats what we did and everything went just fine.

He had done a mistake on the first copy and the week before my interview he filled up the form again from the website, printed it, had it notarized and sent it to me express. They never questionned it at the embassy....

and honestly, I have NEVER, EVER read anywhere on THEIR forms and instructions that it had to be THEIR sheet, and anyways all the other forms we ever submit for this process are printed from their website.... This is from the VJ instructions, and not doubting about anything, but there is so many things that have changed in the past year, like the electronic filling of the DS-156, etc that I would be really surprised that they would not let you print the form yourself.

Good luck! :thumbs:

Vj comes through again!!!

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

Thanks everyone!!!! Had my interview yesterday and it was a breeze. Although I was panicing a bit because I forgot to bring my fiances bank letter stating information about his account. No one asked for it. Im estatic right now. One tip to everyone is to get there REAL EARLY. It amazed me how quickly to consulate became packed. Thanks again!!!
