Mine did not have the finger prints included on it because it was requested under the privacy act, which I thought was the correct one. But I have some seeing some conflicting information on that

Nor does mine. The reciprocity site still says that it shouldn't have fingerprints. This is a very new change if what the commissionaires person said is true.

I agree with people saying we need to be a squeaky wheel. The K1’s were noisy and their getting it done. I don’t see many comments on Montreals facebook from IR1/CR1 people. Also how do I get my timeline on the excel file

Approved!

Got there at about 8:13 am for an 8:15 am appointment. There was one other person outside. A guard came out and was letting us in one at a time. They ask for your passport and then you put your stuff through an xray and walk through a metal detector just like at an airport but you get to leave your shoes on 😛 I forgot that my watch is an electronic device so I had to lock it up, heads up for people with smartwatches! 

The consulate is on the first floor. The security guard told me to go to window 4 or 5 but both were busy so the guard upstairs told me to take a seat (seats are already spaced out but she wanted me as far away from everyone else as possible haha). There were only 2 other people there. I sat down and a few moments later a lady knocked on window 7 and asked if I had been served and I said I hadn't so she took my passport. When one of the windows became available the guard told me to go to it but the person at the window told me to wait until I was called. Other people that came up when the windows were empty didn't have to wait to be called up. When I was called up (over a loud speaker so you can't miss it) I was asked for my original documents. I was asked for birth certificate, marriage certificate, police certificate, i864, 2019 tax transcript, 2019 W2, one passport photo, medical (I just said mine was sent electronically) and then they took my fingerprints. They did not want photocopies of anything, just the originals. I was not asked for either my IL or appointment confirmation, DS260 confirmation, husband's proof of citizenship, tax information for any prior years, the 5540, or any proof of relationship. He also confirmed my address, my husband's address (they had it slightly wrong because we'd got it wrong on our original i864 but I corrected him and he updated it in the computer, no problem), both of our phone numbers, and our lawyer's name. Then he gave me the domestic violence pamphlet and told me to wait to be called again. I meant to ask if I could switch to having my SSN automatically sent to me but I just realized I completely forgot to ask haha.

 

Just a note: When I handed over my police certificate the guy took out a post it note and I was worried but all he wrote on it is that it needed to be scanned (he proceeded to do this for any updated documents I had too). I have the police certificate that says "Other (Provide Details)" and this was accepted. 

 

I went to sit down and read over the pamphlet. It was 8:40 am when I sat down and I think I was called up again around 8:50-8:55 am. By that time there were 8 of us in the waiting room. The guy at the window had me swear an oath and then took my fingerprints again. I was so nervous that most of the interview is already lost in the abyss but from what I remember I was asked my petitioners name, how we were related, if this was both of our first marriages, if we had kids, how we met, how long after we met did my husband go back to the US, when we got married, who was at our wedding, the longest I'd been in the US, what my husband's job is, what his job entails, and what the pamphlet they give you is about. Then he reached over to the board next to him with all the papers and reached for a white one (I was panicking because I know the 221g can be white) and then he said your visa is approved here's your welcome letter! He said I should receive it in 7-10 days and gave my originals back. I went back downstairs and got my watch and was out of the consulate at 9:03 am. 

 

Will post any more details if they come to me!
