Medical - August 17, 2009.
Once I enter the US my SSN and Green Card will be mailed to me in 4-6 weeks. I have no other steps to take as I have been married more than 2 years...8 1/2 years to be exact. Thank goodness this is over!

| Embassy Review : |
We didn't get to Montreal until 3 am and had to be up for 6:00 for my appointment.
The consulate experience itself was wonderful. We did a lot of waiting...4 hours to be exact and all it was, was two ten minute meetings. Visa will be sent express post with my passport. (They attach the visa to the passport) The first meeting was simply taking my fingerprints and more passport size photos. I gave them my medical and then was ask to wait some more. The second meeting both my interpreter and I had to swear to tell the truth and he was told as my interpreter he could only repeat the questions if I asked him to and he was not to answer any of them. I was asked how we met, what my hubby does for a living, how many times he's been married, how many times I've been married, they asked me about his kids and then mine. They asked if I had medical insurance in the US. The last question was the last time I saw him All in all it was very pleasant and both people were very patient with me and very helpful.

*Notice about estimates: The estimates are based off averages of other members recent experiences
(documented in their timelines) for the same benefit/petition/application at the same filing location.
Individual results may vary as every case is not always 'average'. Past performance does not necessarily
predict future results. The 'as early as date' may change over time based on current reported processing
times from members. There have historically been cases where a benefit/petition/application processing
briefly slows down or stops and this can not be predicted. Use these dates as reference only and do not
rely on them for planning. As always you should check the
USCIS processing times to see if your application
is past due.
