They still deny people from Canada even with PR..I know someone in such situation..we would be travelling to the us before moving Canada. Just thought to apply from here.

In the spirit of giving back

Brief History

I applied for a B1/B2 Visa in 2016 with hubby.(hubby was renewing,mine was first issue) sent change of intent letter. I used Emory hospital in Atlanta 2017. Hospital bill was $4325(including epidural), Doctor's bill was 1350. I had 3 pediatrician visit ( 250).

We submitted our dropbox application Dec 11 2018, it was a very long wait. We got the 221g letter Jan 21 2019, we were able to schedule our interview for Jan 27th .
