Use the last name that you want to be known as.... I took my husbands name so all my forms were filed with my married name....

Thanks. Is this the same for Advance Parole, even though my maiden name is on my passport?

I am from Canada on a K-1 visa. My husband and I just got married and we want to start our AOS paperwork, but do not know which name to use on the paperwork? Should we use my maiden name (on my k1 visa) or my married name (as I will be taking on his last name)?

Please help!!!

i am waiting to get my packet 3 from the vancouver embassy. what needs to be sent back immediately in order to get an interview date?

My husband was interviewed in Vancouver, he is also from Calgary.

See my time line.

We applied in November of 04 and he had his interview in July of 05.

It depends on how fast you can get the information needed and returned to them on the speed of your interview.

They usually give 90 days between packages...

Finally...someone from Calgary!!! I think that my fiance put Calgary on the application because we didn't know that it couldn't be done here...will that delay things? Also, what is on the checklist for the interview?

Hi there!

I actually just posted asking about the wait time for Vancouver over on the Canada forum...

We're about to fax in our checklist this friday, so I'll let you know how long it might be...

Another VJ'er said that they included their email with the checklist and asked them to email them with their interview date... they got a date a month away in their email 2 days after faxing the checklist in...

Hope we're all so lucky!

But from what I've seen, the wait at Montreal is a bit longer than it is in Vancouver!

Good luck!

thanks!!! what did they ask for on the checklist?

The smaller consular offices don't handle visas that we are dealing with on this board, sorry. They're more for assisting American citizens in Canada You'll be dealing with Vancouver, which is a great consulate. Check the Canadian Clearing House thread for links to information threads about Vancouver.

your links are very helpful. thank you.

your interview will most likely will be in Vancouver

do you know how long the wait for a vancouver interview usually is?

Hi,

I am from Calgary, Alberta, Canada. My fiance has submitted the I-129F visa application to the California Service Centre and we are awaiting approval. I noticed on this site that members from Canada were either interviewed at the embassies in Montreal or Vancouver. Are these the only 2 locations to be interviewed at? Can you not be interviewed at a consulate in your home city?

Any insight or advice would be greatly appreciated.
