US Immigration from Canada

Hello,

I received an email from the MTL Embassy advising me of my interview date. I then went on the website to register the interview and pay the VISA fee. This was all without receiving the P4 instructions..Now I have run into more questions/complications:

• the confirmation email I received after paying the VISA fee stated that I am "required to bring all previous passports to the interview, especially those that show any international trips or previously issued Visas to the United States." The problem is that, I have long since destroyed my previous Canadian passports after receiving my most recent one. I have had at least 3 passports in my life so far. In fact, I think you can choose to relinquish your previous passport when the Canadian government issues a new one to you. Does anyone have any experience from their K1 interview recently, and how they managed to deal with this problem? Will I be denied K1 approval over this?

Thank you for any advice or help you can offer.

We submitted our DS260 3 yrs ago when our petition was approved for our F3 family visa. After 3 years we finally have our interview at Montreal Consulate next week (had one booked last year but it was canceled cause of the pandemic). We updated our daughter's Passports, criminal checks, re-did medicals, got updated income tax info from our petitioner. I asked the consulate what things we needed to updated that may have expired and they just sent me the regular link with list of documents you need.

I saw on a Facebook group that they sometimes ask you to update your DS260. We haven't been asked to do this. Honestly nothing really has changed for us anyway on it.

Just wondered if anyone was asked to do this for their interview or after interview?

Hello,

Is anyone (family-based) receiving an interview letter for June?

Thanks!

So far no Interview dates have been scheduled for June 2021 for Montreal, Canada for IR1 visa. Is this normal or anyone aware of any delays?

Hello, I am sure this has been answered before, but couldn't find anything recent on the topic.

After not receiving the P3 in the mail for over a month, my fiancee and I decided to follow-up by email with the MTL Embassy. Within a day or two they responded by saying the 'packet had been mailed'. Either they had the wrong address or some one screwed up the address, because after a month of waiting, we saw nothing in the mail. Further, they then sent an email to us with the P3 instructions. Since I already had researched the P3, I had all my documents ready to send back, which were forwarded to them as requested via email several days later.

Now here are the the issues I am stuck at: 1) we have not received any communication from the embassy that our documents have been received. 2) We don't seem to have any indication as to how long it will take to receive the P4 instructions. Several previous threads from years ago seem to indicate a turnaround that varies between less than a day, to a week, or several weeks.

Knowing this, does anyone have any advice or knowledge on how long it ought to take, or is taking, the MTL embassy to send out p4 instructions, after having received the P3 email from us?

Thank you,
