I'm pregnant and due may 31. I plan on booking my interview end of June beginning of July. Not having to rush the process now has lifted so much anxiety. So much better this way!

I was checking the interview scheduling website allllll morning and nothing was yet available... 

Then I decided to check once more this afternoon and... May is now open!!! 

I got my interview date on May 1st!!! 😁

I thought that Montreal schedules IR1/CR1 interviews, not the applicant. No ?

You can but they will respond saying not to send your stuff in yet. You've got about two weeks until MTL mails off your P3. You should see your status update date change around that time, wait a couple days from that, then you can try e-mailing it in. Sending it now won't get you anywhere.

So I was able to talk to someone at the appointment centre (Thanks F+S for the  contact) and they verified that IV slots aren't open as of yet and that K-1 slots are separate times assigned only for k-1.Sharing that here in case anyone is wondering.

PS:  IV appointment dates are assigned by Montreal however,  you book your own if called in for a 2nd interview

 

Will keep checking...

Awe, congrats! I sent my packet 3 in as the status has updated for the 3rd time on the site. We’ll see if that clicks and I get my packet 4.

I didn't see a difference either.  There may have been a change on the instruction sheet though.

The only change we found was section 3, question 38 where they now want specific amounts or a list of needed financial support from the Sponsor on behalf of the Beneficiary. Definite read with a fine tooth comb, the changed are minute but critical.

I'm comparing the two I-134's side by side and don't see a difference in Part 3 question 38.  What am I missing?

Lol i guess there was no difference. Man i feel like its a game of spot the differences and in the end there isn’t any and your brain just starts making stuff up. Sorry.
