Visiting Ottawa in Aug 2006 for H1B/H4 revalidation

[SirZKaGC]

I am on H1 for more than 6 yrs now & my last visa expired last yr.
I applied for my Green card using substitution on Labor. My I140 was cleared last year & I485 is pending for 2 yrs.
No I have changed my employer & have received the H1B approval for next 3 yrs & my spouse's H4 as well.

I have an appointment at Ottawa center for H1B/H4 visa revalidation. Can someone tell me if Canada in general & Ottawa in specific are particular about certain specific thing that I need to take care of.
Like I read few comments that Canada prefers US education & rejects if one don’t have US degree.
I don't have US Education & have NON-Computer Science Engineering degree from one of the well know institutes of India (at least well known in India )

Visiting Documents

Dear SirZkagc,

All the regular documents that you are taking along are just fine. Regarding a degree from US it is only a hype. do not pay too much attention to that. If that was the case how else could first time H1Bs be approved from India only? Do they have degrees from US universities?

Stamping anywhere in Canada/India is the same as I got stamped in Toronto and also got stamped in Delhi, India. I do not belong to any software/IT company and I have degrees only from India. I may be an exception but I personally did not have any rigid criteria nor any hype.

Hope this helps and good luck to you for stamping asap
