US outland applicants' thread :)

[OhCanadiana]

Hi OhCanadian,

I just saw the spreadsheet and I would like to be part of it. Here is our timeline.

Med exam done Nov 14 2011
Application received Dec 30 2011
Sponsor accepted: Feb 20 2012
E-mail confirming reception of app: Feb 27 2012 from Buffalo
Transfer to Seattle: March 7 2012
Interview schedule : Aug 13 2012

My e-case still says Application received. Doesn't say anything about the med exam. Is that normal? I know our interview is rare, but I don't see what they would want more. We have a bb together and she is dual already.

Thanks

G-man recently took over from GOGOGO. If you PM him whenever you have an update he'll update the spreadsheet.

Welcome

Is your husband is a US citizen? If so, you'll just need to send them a copy of his passport - perhaps you can have family in the US or Canada mail it for you. If he's not from a visa exempt country, how long is the trip? And, when did your husband do his medicals? VO's give you 30 or 60 days usually to get the passport to them ... time will tell what CPC-O does.

My husband and I both live in the US.

You get to keep the actual passport, you'll just have to photocopy all pages of the passport and send to them

This might not be the correct place for me to pose this question, but if you all will entertain me anyway, I'd kindly appreciate it.

In the Buffalo thread, I've read so many things as far as ecas and address updates is concerned and not if an address update means anything, really, but would like to ask. I logged into ecas just now and it shows my mailing address (US address) for the first time. Is this good? Is this bad? Does this mean nothing at all? Am I being too hopeful

Best case, if you recently sent your application, it could mean they input all your data. However, people report addresses appeared and gone many times with no correlation to the process.

Yes they will. Just put in your province and postal code instead

self addressed stamped envelope, for a channeler I had to send one and I was in Canada and had no US postage so i paid $4.50 or so for something Canada Poste has that you can send to the Us and they can use for US postage. Different countries, different postage.

*** CONGRATULATIONS, Parker24!!! ***

Good to know also that it's off to LA. That means LA is still processing Permanent Resident Apps (to answer questions a few pages back)
