Experience in Calgary
Hi All,

Sorry for late post as I was out of country and not connected to internet.

I was looking for appointment date on last week of December, 2018 or 1st week of January,2019. But there was no date available till March/April anywhere in Canada. I got helpful tips from the forum that there is one question in your appointment profile where they ask " Are you applying from outside the Canada?". Initially i had answered it as "Yes" but after getting info from the forum I changed my answer to "NO" and I show early available dates and after continuously checking I got appointment on 2nd January, 2019 at Calgary.

I had an appointment at 9.40 am. I reached there by 9.30 am. At entrance they asked if we have anything in pocket like gum, lipstick or anything. They allow locker only for wallet/phone/keys. There is print/Stationary shop at the corner of the building where they rent locker for $5 in case you do not have any other option.

After getting in, there was a desk where lady checked DS-160 confirmation page, passport and photo. She also asked for proof of status in Canada. I showed my visitor visa stamp. After that there was security checking and after that they brought us to the 10th floor for interview process.

At 1st window, lady checked our documents (passport, photo and I-797). She was very specific about photo. In case you require different photo, there is print/stationary shop at corner for urgent passport photo.

At 2nd window, guy took our finger prints

At 3rd window (interview), Guy asked the following questions,

1. Job title
2. Your specialty (Job Profile)
3. Salary
4. Your higher level of education
5. question to my wife: your higher level of education

Visa approved and provided a information page for passport tracking. This whole process took about 30-40 minutes.

I had interview on Wednesday, I got email regarding passport tracking number on Thursday afternoon. I kept following the link from email to check the status and my passport was ready for pick up on Friday morning around 10.30 am.

It was very smooth and quick process.
