    Montreal (Canada) Consular Processing only!!!

    clarification French IS THE OFFICIAL LANGUAGE OF QUEBEC, and english is a "minor official language". English & French are both official languages of Canada. But, I think u will have to translate to english, since u are dealing with native english speakers @ the consulate. Think of it...

    TN Extension by Mail -- Filing in a "Timely" Fashion

    U r fine, no need to freak out. There are 3 ways u can do this... 1.) File a I-129, to extend the TN status (not visa), and PAY 1000 to expedite the response within 2 weeks from filing date 2.) File a I-129 via regular timeline, and sit tight until approved (this is where the 240 day...

    Help needed-DV-F1-J1

    I suspect changing visa type will be a problem, since you will have to file I-539(?), and as raevsky noted. Can you apply for H1B? With H1B, u can circumvent the dual intent hurdle.

    Help needed-DV-F1-J1

    This is because POE is within USICIS jurisdiction, and they are not connected to the KCC systems ... yet...I think..;) This is because Consulates are under the State Department Jurisdiction, which also manages the KCC, which overseas the DV files. This means that consulate people can "see"...

    The land of opportunity

    I stand corrected :D I have actually never taken a public transit ride in my 4 yrs of living in Atlanta, but based on other peoples opinion, and observing route designs when driving around, my assessment was as stated. Keep in mind I started with "Bad"...LOL! ;)

    Change of plan, from AOS to CP

    It's strange but I have also found that the Department of State employees (customer service reps) to be quite pleasant than other US gov agencies. And they are usually younger sounding females...;) Which is quite the opposite, based in the horror stories I have heard about dealing with...

    The land of opportunity

    correction... Do not paint the entire US with the same brush. I have been to Atlanta (South East), Seattle (North West) and Boston (North East) parts of the country, and I can tell you, it depends on where u decide to live. Atlanta = Bad-to-Average public transit. City is poorly planned...

    DV 2009 lucky kenyan winners

    IIRC, I have only seen I-864 used thru AOS route. So u are telling me that if one is doing CP, then the proper affidavit of support form is I-134? and in this form the expectation of support is not enforceable?

    tired of waiting

    LoL! :) sincere apologies... in summary, I am cautioning about being infatuated with "the idea of living in America". If u already have a well paying job, u should really and critically evaluate your chances of success in USA, compared with your future success in your home country. The...

    tired of waiting

    Ha! Ha! Ha! ati mateso ya bure LOL!... By the way, usitamani USA saaana...especially now that economy iko mbaya. Dont get me wrong, if your opportunities in kenya are limited, then kuja huku is a step up. But if nyumbani uko sawa, with a good job, brace yourself for some degree of...

    DV 2009 lucky kenyan winners

    To longing4usa, While it is understandable that you have a healthy skeptism of someone offering to assist with Aff. of Support, I'm curious how your "experience" allows u to make the above statement. I have seen affidavit of support, and even though there is a section that asks about the...

    DV 2009 lucky kenyan winners

    I can attest to how Kimathiz deduced the likelyhood of getting a low number. My sis-in-law applied in the first week of DV2007, and her number was somewhere in the 6000's. I applied in final month of DV2008 and my number is in the 44000's. So, take it as a general hint. The worst case is that...

    Should I list my Children who were born in USA in ds230 form??

    Oh yes u do I beg to differ....I have 2 US born kids, and I called KCC different 4 times, and each rep told me to write them down, but also note beside their names "US Citizens" in brackets. In any case, I dont think it makes or breaks your chances. Also, since they are US Citizens...

    Questions about DS-230 and DSP-122 forms (important).Help needed.

    That is very strange....but remember, most front line consulate people are not very smart, and usually want to intimidate everyone. There are certain questions that lend themselves to a "N/A" answer, and others obviously do not. Not having a middle name to me does not mean "not applicable"...

    I129 By Mail - Change in Employer

    You lucky son-of-a-gun:D...I also wondered how the heck you pulled that off. In my case, company lawyer mailed my i-129 this week for premium processing and I have my fingers crossed hoping that my filing DS230 for DV will not trip my new TN request.
