I remember a while ago they used to give you the visa at the interview. Do they not do that anymore?

I was kinda hoping to fly to the states like, right after the interview. Guess thats probably not gonna happen, huh?

I got mine but I had to ask. Ask the interviewer and he may grant your request. ;)

One can always ask, and they may say yes or no! They haven't done same day issues in Montreal for nearly 2 years now. I sure would not book a ticket for the same or next day after interview

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1

I know Ryan and Chantel were able to pick it up the day AFTER the interview, but they did have to ask. Sometimes they say they are unable to do anything but mail them, I think it depends on how busy they are. I do know that you can't get it the same day though.

A friend of mine just went through her Montreal Interview, she asked if she could pick it up the next day and was told no. You could always try and ask. Doesn't hurt I guess. She actually got it in the mail 3 days later so she didn't wait long at all. Good luck!
