US Immigration from Canada

I m currently living in Canada with my husband and no longer have a Domicile in the US I know I will require one before we finish the process at what point would be a good time to do so? We re just beginning NVC stage.

thanks

Hi all,

I've been lurking for a couple of weeks and have found all your advice extremely helpful and reassuring. I'm currently awaiting Packet 4 from the US Consulate in Montreal and am looking ahead to the medical examination requirements in the meantime.

One answer I couldn't find is whether original vaccination records are needed to demonstrate proof of required immunizations at Medsys. The reason I ask is because I'm a Canadian who grew up in Quebec and used to have the little purple "Carnet de vaccinations" immunization booklet as a kid, but it appears I lost it in a previous move. However, I had the foresight to scan the entire booklet in PDF form a couple of years ago and could print that out as proof for Medsys my question is, will that be sufficient or will they insist on seeing the original booklet?

Also, I've seen on the Montreal forums that some people brought a titre test to prove varicella immunity while others simply made a verbal declaration of having had chickenpox in the past. Can someone who's been there more recently confirm whether the latter was indeed sufficient?

Thank you for your time! I'm hoping to come back and write a review of Medsys and the visa interview once I complete those stages.

Good day!

my petition for my husband was just approved a few days ago as we noticed when we logged into our account on USCIS we have not yet received our approval letter stating so with further instructions. And I understand it takes time for NVC to receive the approval of the I-130 from USCIS and start a file! My question is other then prepare all required documents for NVC is there anything else we can do at this stage or do we need to wait for NVC contact?

Thanks guys

I filled the DS-160 last week and my interview is in a month. I have a few days planned in the US in the next week. Can I still go? Do I need to change something in the DS-160 or I can just tell the officer at the interview?

I'm a French citizen, naturalized Canadian. I have been living in Montreal for about 10 years now. My wife and I will apply for the CR1 visa through Canada. Did anyone went through that kind of situation ?

We are about to submit the 130 application and wanted to make sure we are not missing anything and doing it the right way. (We will submit my French police record and birth certificate in addition to the Canadian police record at the NVC stage when the time comes)
