Don't know yet. They want more details about a blackout I had in 2014. 😑 (Honestly forgot about that. Nothing came of it after some blood tests). Waiting for my doctor to sort that out and then they can send my stuff to the embassy. 

 

Y'know me. Nothing is straight forward.

Really looking forward to heading up to the embassy. Found out one of my friends, a copper, is on the beat up there. That'll make the waiting time a bit quicker. 😁 WHEN I get there.

 

Until then... Back on the waiting for train. 

Choo bloody choooo!

You're amazing!


Thank you!

 

I can book my medical right after the NVC number and I don't have to wait for the packet right?

Well, no. At least, at the Toronto clinic for visa medicals that I used, you MUST have your interview with the embassy booked before they will book you for the medical. Therefore, that meant, for me, having to wait for Packet 3, and then Packet 4. 

 

Because, it's Packet 4 from the embassy which carries the link to their Visa booking site, which is a completely different site from the embassy. Once you have that link, you set up an account for yourself and pay for your Visa if you want to pay for it online by CC. (I believe there's an option to pay by cash at the embassy on the day of interview, but I used my credit card to pay on the site) and then book your interview appointment. Only then was I able to book my medical.

 

Double-check the website of whatever Visa doctor you're planning on using to see if they will allow you to book your medical before you have your interview appointment. I think Packet 3 comes with a warning not to book too far ahead because your medical has a limited validity period.

 

Here's a copy of Packet 3 so you can see what it says. This link is straight from the email that I got from the embassy:

 

https://ca.usembassy.gov/wp-content/uploads/sites/27/2016/07/Packet3Instructions-K1.pdf

 

(Edit to add: I read it again just to be sure, and yes it seems quite clear that you have to wait until you have your interview booked but...)

 

Double and triple-check with your chosen Visa doctor's website anyway....heck, double-and-triple check errythang! :P

 

You're very welcome and let us know how it goes :)

You guys.. I just got the email. They sent out an RFE today.

I'm so sorry it took them so long to send an RFE, ridiculous. Hopefully it's an easy fix and you'll be approved soon!

I think it’s down to me and @Martin3517 without news or RFE? Today I sent an email to the CSC follow up email address....the response was basically “the update on your case is in the last email”..so yeah, got nowhere on that avenue! 🙄

Hey guys, any approved Canadians know how long it took to get your passport back from the consulate in Montreal? I need to book flights to the UK for after my interview at the end of this month, but don't know how much time to give. I'd like to travel as soon as possible. Any help much appreciated as always! :)
