Canadian: deep breath. Go on the Montreal consulate's website. They have a copy you can see of packet three. Start gathering what you need, go hit up your local RCMP/regional police/comissionaires office for the police check. Check your medical records, see if you need any boosters on any vaccines. There's a test your doc can give you that'll show your immunity if you don't have those immunization records anymore. My suggestion: get what shots you need before the panel medical. Better covered under provincial health care than charged at the medical.

It may take a while (couple weeks to a month) before the consulate gets your file. Call the nvc after about two weeks (seems to be the general consensus) and you'll get a new number to remember for tracking purposes.

You can't book your interview or medical until you get packet 4 - which they send after they get your checklist from packet three saying you have everything (or everything applicable I should say. Don't need court records if you've never been to court, military service records etc)

(All this info is based on stuff I've read on here - my noa2 came a week and a half ago)
