Tony,

The process may seem confusing and overwhelming at first, but if you want to do this yourself, the way you combat that confusion is by educating yourself. There is simply too much information for us to address each question one by one for each forums user. That would require a lot of duplication of effort, AND will be of lower quality in general, because something might be missed if you take such a piecemeal approach. You need to get on track to understanding the whole of the process remaining in front of you. Luckily, you've found VJ, and a lot of that information has been gathered for you here! I would also caution you against relying solely on the forums as none of us are lawyers. We are just people like you, who have gone through the process once (mostly), and if you're really afraid of doing something wrong, "Some guy on the intarwebs told me" isn't going to hold up much. Know as much as you can on your own first. :)

I'd like to point you to some resources which may help you to sort out the visa application process. There are a number of links at the top of every Visa Journey page. You've found the forums link, obviously, but there are some others which will help you. These are tried and tested through several cases.

Embassy Info - Once you sort out which Canadian Embassy you're going through (see wiki page below), it has listings of what other users have been asked for and links and all sorts of good information, including what you need for packet 3.

Reviews: Embassy/USCIS-POE - This link will let you read about other users' experiences during their interview at your embassy. They are a good mine for information, and can really help put your fiancee's mind at ease because she'll know what she's in for on interview day.

Example forms: Once you know which forms you need to fill out, there are some confusing fields on these things, because they are multi-purpose forms, some fields don't seem to apply to us. Check how your fiancee is answering against the example forms if you have any issues. If you still can't sort it out, then the forums would be a second choice. (No waiting for a response if you go to the example forms yourself). Plus, if the answer is in there you'll just be directed there anyway.

Canada Wiki page: (http://www.visajourney.com/wiki/index.php/Canada) Actually, I think that will help you with your which consulate question!

As if that wasn't enough information, I would also encourage you to take a time out and take a far sighted view of the process. For example, did you know that after the K-1 is all over with, you'll need to adjust her status after marriage for an additional $1010? Knowing what's ahead and what the headaches are there may help you prepare through the next process better (ie better preparation for medical headaches if you get her vaccines before the visa medical, and obtain a copy of the full visa medical before arriving in the US).

Here's the flowchart that will take you all the way to her getting the green card. http://www.visajourney.com/forums/index.ph...amp;page=k1flow

…So the rest of the forms that need to be filled out will mailed in, or taken with her on her interview??

Somebody you don't even know, took a lot of time to advise you on how to learn the process, and you've ignored that advice to return to one off questions. If you'll follow the advice given, you'll find the answer. There's plenty of time. Get to work on your homework assignment. Really, doing so is critical to your ultimate success. This is not lazy man's process.

Different embassies have different requirements. Some want you to mail it, some faxed, some take with. If you click at the top of the page where it says "Embassy Info" and go to C for Canada, then select the Montreal embassy, it says there what needs to happen to 'packet 3' which is the forms that she will need to submit - whichever way Montreal prefers - in order to get her interview.

Timeline Summary:

K-1/K-2 NOA1 - POE: 9 February - 9 July 2010

Married: 17 July 2010

AOS mailed - Interview : 22 November 2010 - 10 March 2011

ROC mailed - approved: 14 February - 18 June 2013

Citizenship mailed - ceremony: 9 February - 7 June 2017
