wrong embassy?

[nebcan 0]

My fiance, USC, got a letter today-no text or email, dated Dec 21/11 that our case would be sent to Montreal within 7 days and the packet for me is being sent to my old Ontario address. When I called NVC on Thursday the 29th , to check on case,and to double check on my address and correct embassy ---- I-beneficiary -Canadian- was told my dob I gave them to ID myself on case was incorrect and to email proof-would not talk about case with "wrong ID".. I sent email yesterday to NVC w passport and birth certif as requested. So, obviously someone has typed in my dob incorrectly,despite that they have copies of my passport, dl and birth certificate already AND have had prior communications-many, by phone,email and letter with my fiance with no mention of my dob being incorrect. arggg.

And now wrong embassy- sent to Montreal-I am living in Calgary. I moved from Ontario on September 10/11.. they-Vermont SC were told over the phone ,and sent a letter , along with the RFE docs my fiance sent back to them in October. Oh and btw they sent the RFE to incorrect address for him---took 6 weeks to get one to the correct address, which they wouldn't allow him to confirm until after a month! His address hasnt changed since 2005 so there again someone made a mistake.

Has anyone had to request case be moved to a different embassy? I cannot afford to travel to Montreal ... from the west coast besides the fact they are backlogged huge. The Vancouver embassy here is a few hundred miles away.

Ask for the file to be transferred from Montreal to Vancouver. You are doing a K-1 and all K-1s for those living west of Manitoba are handled in Vancouver. So, you may need to send an Email to the Montreal Consulate, advising them of your address and the fact that the correct address was some how not recorded properly. They can transfer it and it won't cause much of a delay. Good luck - it does sound like a comedy of errors, though.
