Hello VJ.

Quick question. How can i track my documents if the consulate didnt give me a waybill #? I sent my 221g missing documents via xpress at canadapost. Is there a number i can call or something??

whats the problem?? They were nice enough to say yes they have it and explained the process. Now you just have to sit and wait and wait.

i thought so. i have a million people in my ear saying otherwise. Thanks.

From reading other peoples threads on similar issues, it often takes Montreal a month on average to process what you sent in after they get an RFE. Be patient.

I just received an email from them. After i sent this:

"Hello, My name is "blank" and this hasnt been my first email sent. I had recently did my interview, but ended up missing some documents. Which was my passport and taxes from my petioner and sponsor. I didnt know I was suppose to send it with csc courier service so I ended up sensing it through canada post express. It shows online on canadapost.ca that my delivery has been made and was signed by "I ARMOUR" the purpose of this message is did you guys recieve my documents? And another thing. I sent it directly to the consulate. I wasnt well informed about the p.o box that you guys set up especially for this. Can you please respond? Its been a ruff tine for me not knowing where my passport and my moms personal info just passing around."

And their reply:

" Good day,

We are pleased to acknowledge receipt of the documents. Please note that all mail addressed to the U.S. Consulate General in Montreal undergoes thorough security clearance procedures at an offsite facility. This creates additional delays for the mail to actually reach our office. The date you claim the mail was delivered is not the actual date our office has received your mail. You may expect your case to be reviewed within 4 weeks from the date that the mail was sent.

I hope that this information may be useful."

#######? It wads a yes or no question.... Aargh!

Hi everyone,

Would anyone be able to give me advice on what to do with my current situation concerning my attempt to get my U.S. visa?

Back in January 25, 2010 I went for my immigrant visa interview at the U.S. Consulate in Montreal and was denied my visa under section 221g due to missing financial info. I was told that I had 1 year to send them the necessary info along with my passport which I did on January 17, 2011. I sent this out by Xpresspost and to the address that they had outlined which was:

U.S. Consulate General

Attn: IV Unit

PO Box 65, Station Desjardins

Montreal, QC H5B 1G1.

When I checked to see the status of my mail on Jan. 18, I saw the message “item redirected to recipient’s new address” Then on Jan. 19, I saw the message that the “item was successfully delivered” and signed by an “ME Dugal” Of course when I tried to confirm with the consulate via email if they had received my mail, I got no response.

I even checked with Canada Post to find out where my mail was sent to and they said that they don’t have that info but that it was sent to the right place. To make me even more nervous, I received a letter from the US consulate in Mtl dated January 25, 2011 that they had not received my response and that my application for visa has been cancelled. The letter states that I can get my application reinstated if within one year “you can establish that your failure to pursue your immigrant visa application was due to circumstances beyond your control.”

My question is, if they do not respond to any form of communication with me then how should I try to get through to them?

Does anyone have any such experience? What about faxing or mailing them with the proof of delivery? Or better yet if I go there in person with my wife who is an American citizen do you think this would work? I just want to know that my mail has been received and that my visa has not been denied.

The worse thing is that I do not have a passport anymore and no one seems to knows where it is.

Thank You

Owen

you ever got this handled? im afraid im in the same boat as you. I also sent mines directly to the consulate someone by "I ARMOUR" signed. did you get this resolved?

I had my interview Oct. 4 set by NVC to consular of Montreal BUT i ended up missng some required info and i needed to send them in. I didnt know that i had to use csc courier service and i ended up using xpresspost with signature required upon delivery. Also instead of sending it to the p.o box that they have set up i sent it directly to the consulate because (i dont know if the lady from csc courier service understood me or not) told me to. I checked online at canadapost.ca and it says someone recieved it and signed it. Should i panic or not??? Please answer me. :-/

P.S the interview lsted only 7min and it was good. Just needed to sens in my passport and taxes from my petioner and sponser.
