I am Canadian - My husband, an American Citizen.



I received my Interview Letter today, but they have scheduled me for an appointment in Montreal - this is on the other side of the continent. I live on the outskirts of Vancouver, so I was hoping to be able to be scheduled in Vancouver.



Is there a way for me to reschedule so I don't have to travel so far (and spend so much)? I have tried looking online but I have not found any help yet. If I NEED to travel to Montreal then I can do it... I would just prefer not to

You should book a hotel as soon as possible. Montreal has lots of summer events like the Jazz festival, and it can get difficult to get a hotel. I stayed at the Phillips Square suites which had a kitchen and is right around the corner from the consulate.
