Interview Today - Successful!
So, after going to Montreal for my medical on Friday, Sept 28, then to Toronto for that weekend to see friends and also to pick up my divorce certificate at a Toronto court, I returned to Montreal on Tues Oct 2, picked up my medical on Wed Oct 3, and had my interview today.
I showed up at the embassy at 8:45 (had a 9am appt) to go through security, then up to the consulate to pick up a number and sitting down to wait.
They started calling numbers in no order that I could discern, and just around 10am I was called to a counter to hand over my paperwork, then asked to go pay, and bring back the receipt to the same counter. Then I sat down again and just before noon I was called to a counter. The lady looked through the paperwork, asked me a few questions, like what I did for a living, who I worked for, where I was planning on settling, did I have friends in the US, when was I last in the US and did I have any problems at the border. After answering those questions, she then said "congratulations, I am granting your visa" and then told me that my passport would be couriered to me with the visa in it.
And that was it! Now it's time to start my planning!
