Hey!! I did my POE last friday, it went very well!! So glad to be in Dallas with my fiancé, we'll get married very soon at the courthouse so i can start the AOS asap!!

Here is just a short review for those who wants to POE at YUL:

Me and my fiancé left Sherbrooke at 2:45am in a rental car, with our 4 check-in bags (2 each, one is overweight), one carry-on each (my dog is my carry-on, 100$ to bring my dog in the plane), and one personnal bag each. Yeah that's a lot of bags hehe!! Got in Montreal at 4:15am, dropped the rental car, and took the free shuttle to the airport. At 5am, we have our tickets and start the security check and customs line. There were a lot of people. At 6am, i'm finally talking to the first custom guard!

So i say: I want to activate my K-1 visa today. So the guard asked me a couple questions and reminded me i have to get married in 90 days. he make me file the I-94, take my un-open packet. And then i have to go to secondary. There was a couple people waiting already. I waited in the waiting room for like 30 minutes, then a women told me to come inside a room. She hands me my passport, with the stamped I-94 inside of it. The only thing i'm wondering about, is that she didn't make me sign any papers. She prepared everything before i come in so i didn't have to do anything (but i really think i was supposed to sign something, no?) she didn't ask about what was in my bags, she not even took my dog's rabbies/health certificate, etc...

At 6:45, i'm finally waiting at my gate for my flight. My dog was scared on the plane but with all the treats i gave her, she did very well hehe. Overall, the POE was very easy and painless. I just hope everything was well-done by the women so i don't get any problems :P

I might be wrong, but I'm thinking as long as you have your I-94 you are good to go...
