@Emmajapan Yes. I'm from Nigeria. All the best with your application. -

If the NVC doesn’t receive the documents before they expire, you may be required to submit a new police certificate. Additionally, even if the documents are submitted on time, you might still need to provide updated police certificates in the future for your interview. If your interview is scheduled at a Montreal consulate in Canada, your wife will need to provide a new police certificate from Nigeria. If the interview is in Lagos, Nigeria, and you have lived in Canada for more than three months since your DQ (Documentarily Qualified) date, you will also need to present a new Canadian police certificate at the time of your interview in Lagos. All the best. -
Hello All, I would appreciate your advice on this matter. We recently welcomed a baby here in Canada and are planning to permanently relocate to the U.S. by the end of July. My spouse and I already have our Green Cards, but our newborn does not, and the official birth certificate (issued in Quebec) won't be available until around August. I understand that children are generally allowed to cross the land border with a birth certificate. However, since we won’t have that document by the time we plan to travel, I’m wondering if there are any alternatives we can use. We do have the green attestation paper from the hospital, but unfortunately, it doesn’t include the names of the parents or the child. Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Maybe you can try to contact them for update. It seems they haven’t produced the card yet. -

Depending on the stage, you’ll receive a prompt message: • Stage 1: “We have received payment for this case number and are currently processing it.” • Stage 2: “We have ordered the printing of your Green Card.” • Stage 3: “Your Green Card has been mailed.” -

You can track your green card on the https://egov.uscis.gov/ website with your receipt number. What’s your current tracking status on the egov website? -

@visajournie According to the upcoming April bulletin update, the new priority date is 22JUN23. Which means you’ll be current soon and might likely get your IL next month or latest in May if the consulate continue working at the current pace. The current DQ being interviewed at Montreal is March 2024. -

@monk_yatso We only carried a few extra items we needed for the weekend. At the border crossing, they checked our passports and packages. The officers double-checked the medical records in the package to ensure everything was in order and then congratulated us -

A brief update from my side: We crossed the border into Vermont, USA, on February 20, 2025, and returned to Canada on February 23, 2025. We received our SSN on March 7, 2025. Our Green Card arrived on March 17, 2025. We hope to make the final move before the end of the year. In the meantime, we are actively applying for opportunities in the USA. Thank you all for your support and valuable information. Wishing everyone the best! -

Sorry to hear that. I believe everything will work out. Since you're the main applicant, I think your visa and your son's will likely be approved while your wife's remains pending the outcome of her medical assessment -

It's not compulsory. Your police certificate is valid for 2 years. My DQ was Dec 2023 and had my interview in Feb 2025 with the same RCMP police certificate. Just make sure you go with the original, since they'll retain it at the consulate. -

My experience closely mirrors that of @monk_yatso, with the key difference being that my appointment was scheduled for 9:45 AM, and the entire process took approximately three hours to complete. During the interview, I was asked about my highest qualification, the institution where I obtained it, my field of research, any previous visits to the USA, and my intended place of stay in the country. I’m pleased to share that our IVs were approved, and the status has now been updated to 'Issued' on the CEAC website. Wishing the best of luck to everyone still waiting, and a big thank you to those who continue to share valuable insights on this page! -

@mgsctravels Do we need to pay any fees aside the medical fees before the interview? -

If you’re in medical field with job offer, then they can expedite the process for you. Otherwise, all EB applicants are in the same pool. It depends on your PD and DQ dates. -
