Breaking News – K1 Visa Cases for Canadian nationals will only be processed in Montreal!

March 24 2015 – Today the State Department announced that all K1 visa for Canadian nationals will be processed only in Montreal. Other consulates will still process other kinds of visa except the K1 visas. We recommend our clients to take all the necessary documents and be ready in case they have to travel to Montreal, Canada to have their K1 visa interview. Below is part of the following

“Starting April 1, 2016, the U.S. Consulate General in Vancouver will no longer process K-1 visas, also known as fiancé(e) visas. The U.S. Consulate General in Montreal will be the interviewing site for all K visas in Canada. This change will allow Mission Canada to more efficiently schedule and adjudicate K visa applications.

The U.S. Consulate General in Montreal currently provides all immigrant visa services in Canada. The application process for K visas is the same as for an immigrant visa. While we recognize that having to travel to Montreal will be an inconvenience for applicants, processing all immigrant visas including the K fiancé(e) visas at the same post will help ensure transparency, consistency, and uniform customer service for all applicants.”
