US Immigration from Canada

Hi everyone, I submitted my I-751 last week and logged into my USCIE account today and there s a section called my uploads and it has a few of the things I submitted in my packet I-751.

My question is: why did they only scan a few random documents I sent from my packet and why is it under my uploads when I never uploaded anything?

thanks

Hi, my fianc and I have finally had our case updated to "Ready" at the Montreal consulate. We've seen conflicting information on if we should wait to do DS-160 , schedule medical appointment and actual interview until we have received something from the consulate, or if we can go ahead since the case is now "Ready". We have not received any email or mail updates from the consulate at all, so looking for some clarity because we do not want to leave it sitting too long. Any other useful information or tips, Montreal specific or in general with the process, are welcome also, thank you!

I've read what I can but wanted to put a fresh ask out to the community .... As of January 22, 2025 USCIS is no longer requiring immigrants to have the COVID Vaccine count towards the required vaccinations to immigrate. But in looking at the DHS website/required vaccines listed on consulate pages (and their identified panel physicians) the COVID-19 vaccine (and boosters every 12 months) is still listed on there.

My parents have their medical appointment coming up Ontario, Canada on March 17th. They both got COVID vaccines ... Round 1 and 2, and then boosters because of how strict Canada was...they got their last booster January 2024 (just over a year ago) to ensure they didnt have issues at the border visiting. But that last booster made them both feel not ok in various ways. They are not willing to do it again. Wondering if anyone has any insight on when we can expect consulates/panel physicians to adopt the CURRENT requirement aka no more COVID vaccine requirement as part of the necessary vaccinations for immigration.

Has anyone done a recent medical where they brought this up? What did the doctor say? If the doctor said they still don't have a memo and the intending immigrant refuses to take the shot or 12-month booster at the appointment, what happens? do they still get to go to the interview and hopefully by then the consulate can say well they are ok because now the vaccine isn't required anymore? Or...what happens?

I don't understand how USCIS can push this through in January 2025 and post it online as the new rule and it not trickle through to the other entities that are actually processing immigration applications to be inline with that new order...

Maybe someone in the visa journey community has some real recent experience with this dilemma or any further insight...

Good day.

I used to post here all the time, but thats like 20 years ago!! Crazy how time flies! Trying to look at all our options and 1 option may be for us to Move Canada. I am the Cdn citizen and my wife is American. is there a helpful forum that is like VJ for those trying to move to Canada. VJ made it such a straight forward process, would be great to find a similar forum.

@Captain Ewok Can you update the Guides? USCIS now requires the I-693 to be included with the I-485.
