At the Airport they didn't staple it to your passport?

so they never gave you a paper with the websites that you will need to go too and steps on what to do next?

I was given these at the airport before I flew out.

On this paper "INFORMATION ABOUT K-1 VISAS:FREQUENTLY-ASKED QUESTIONS"

It lists all the next steps that need to be taken

Here are the websites it told me to go too

hope these help

Divorce decrees, records of previous crimes, if applicable and as included in petition package but this go around they want the originals.

Okay thank you very much, I don't have any of them so I don't have to worry about that then.

On the check list for the items that you have to take with you too the interview, it asks for Court Documents, what do they mean by that, what kind of court documents?

Does anyone know where I would contact to apply for an extension on my K1 Visa application?

I have tried to contact the Montreal Consulate by phone and have had no luck, can't seem to get too talk to a real person. If anyone knows where I can call or e-mail and get a reply fast that would be great. My k1 expires Aug 24th, 2012 and beyond my control I wasn't able to get everything done in time *father passed away and well as a fire happened and papers had to be replaced and this took time to get them again*

Please if anyone can help ??

I am in the process of packet 3 and we have had a few set backs on getting all the information that is needed.

I have sent a e-mail to the consulate but they say it takes so long before anyone even replies and I need a reply asap.

Does anyone know any other way to contact the Montreal Consulate?

I responded on your other post. Either you didn't read it or you read it and did not do what was told to do. http://www.visajourn...45#entry5370845

I gave the full list of actions you needed to do and had you followed it you would have likely already had an interview date by now.

I told you that you would be waiting for no reason from Montreal because they are NOT reliable with P3 at all and that you have to be proactive and do all this part yourself.

DOS is department of state and you can find their number for visa services on their website in the contacts section. Call them and find out if Montreal has the packet and if they have mailed out P3 yet. Then go and download the P3 from the US embassy website and get to work quickly doing the forms and getting the evidence and send it to them.

I got all the forms you said to get and have filled them out, I'm sorry I didn't know I could go ahead and send them in without getting the p3 first. I just called the DOS and they said that Montreal has received my case but it has not been processed yet. So your saying just to send it to them anyway and not to wait, I just don't want to mess anything up..... I do appreciate your help, I truly do, thank you!!

What are you waiting on, exactly? (hard to say, since you don't have a timeline filled out).

If you're waiting to receive the P3 letter, many people never get it. Mine arrived a few weeks *after* the P4 letter did.

Check out the pinned topic that is the guide for K1s in Montreal. Use the information there to call DOS and find out if P3 has been sent. If it has, whether you've received it or not, you are ready to move forward.

If you've called DOS already but you're still waiting, be patient a little longer. Mine took 20 days -- I think 3 weeks to a month is about average lately, so it should be soon.

Hope that helps.

I'm sorry but what is DOS? you all use short forms and I don't know what it stands for, and where do I find the number to contact the "DOS"

I sent a e-mail to Montreal and got a standard e-mail back not telling me anything.

We got the Notice of Action and it as approved

I did call the NVC and they said it was sent on to Montreal on May 14th 2012 and gave me a new case number

that is where I am at, I understood I would be getting a P3 from Montreal with in a few weeks

it has been 3 weeks and I've heard/got nothing as of yet.

Still waiting to hear from Montreal, feels like I've been waiting forever, didn't think it would take this long to hear from them.

Got the forms I could and filled them out and ready to send. Wish I would hear from them already, didn't think it would take this long

You can call the Dept of State to see if the consulate has received it. For us it took about a month for Montreal to get it (it was recent, check my sig for my timeline). Don't wait for them to mail Packet 3, everything you need is online. Once the Dept of State says they have received your petition and mailed Packet 3 you can send it back. If you need help getting the number for the DOS I can try to find it if someone else doesn't post it first. Packet 3 for Montreal can be found here: http://photos.state.gov/libraries/canada/303578/montreal/packet3-k1-mtl.pdf. There are many documents that you may need and they take some time (especially if you need to renew the benficiary's passport). I'd get started on those right away. I can share links and tips for the passport renewal, police certificate (we did RCMP one), and birth certificate if you need them, just ask!

seems there is a problem with the DS-156, filled it all out and hit the continue button for it to print and got this error

"Corrupted Content Error

The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because an error in the data transmission was detected.

I take it this is the only place to get this form.

I was wondering how long after the NVC has sent my case to Montreal, how long does it take to get my package?

They gave me a new case # and said it was sent to Montreal on May 14th but I still haven't heard anything.

Is there some where I can call to find out the status?

I was just wondering what our next steps are, We got a notice of "Approved Petition" do I now just wait to hear from the US Embassy Montreal, Canada before anything else needs to be done or is there something I should be doing?

and how long does it take before I will hear from them?

We got the letter about the petition approved over 2 weeks ago...
