Consulate Review: Montreal, Canada
Review Topic: K1 Visa
Event Description
Review Date : January 13, 2011
Embassy Review : Everything that others have said pretty much sum it up, so I'll just give a few insights.

Use DHL. That is all they want for mailing, we were confused on that and did it wrong online, I actually still don't know how to do it... but we worked it out while at the consulate. DO NOT DO THIS- figure it out online and just keep trying to select your DHL location.

Affidavit of Support-
I (the petitioner) am in college and do not have very much money, so we planned to use my parents as our supporters and had them fill out an Affidavid of Support and give us all of their information. Last minutes (a few days before the interview) we decided it might be smart for me to fill out a form as well with letters from my places of work and my tax return from 2009. I am SO thankful that we did this,they wanted my paperwork first and said that my parents was only in suppot of my statement. So, if you plan to use someone besides yourself for financial support, make sure to give your informatio as well.

We got there at 7:05 and were out of the building with the "welcome to the usa" letter in hand at 8:45!

Be calm, bring more than you think you need, and you'll be fine. They are all VERY kind, especially the security guards.
Good luck!
Rating : Very Good
