I'm the OP - I'm not looking for confirmation bias, I'm literally looking for anyone who's been in this situation. With personal first-hand experience.

 

I don't need any vaxx, so my original question is void. But it's not looking for confirmation to ask to speak with or hear from anyone who's found themselves in the same situation. Being part of the US military world changes some things, being Canadian changes some things. It's possible another Canadian is in my situation and I'd like to connect with them.

 

Thanks for all the input, I'm just seeking first-hand experience here, not more web links.

 

 

Unfortunately, being part of the US military and/or Canadian does not change anything in terms of the USCIS and DOS requirements for immigrant petitions and  visas.

It can! If there are deployments on the horizon, as there is in one situation. Thanks for your opinion. Still hoping to find someone in my or a similar situation.

Canadians have a drastically different timeline than some countries because of our record keeping and reciprocal agreements. 

You will find that Canadians and Canadian residents actually generally have longer timelines than applicants from most other countries, because of the ridiculously long wait times of Montreal Consulate. Currently it stands at 10 months from DQ. I have hope this will improve by the time you are in the queue, ut fact remains, right now we worse off than most of the world.

You won't find anyone in the same situation, because what you did is not acceptable for the Montreal Consulate.  Best of luck.

While it is debatable whether being Canadian or military affords special treatment,  what isn't debatable is that you are not allowed to write and follow your own process.
