Appointment confirmation letter query for rescheduled appointments
Good morning peeps. This might sound like a silly question but my appointment has been rescheduled for a different time in the same day automatically by the consulate but I wasn't issued a new appointment confirmation email. The new time just got updated on the website. In my case, what should I bring to my appointment? I was thinking to bring the old appointment confirmation email along with a screenshot of the website status with the correct time and date, would this be ok? Anyone that went through the same experience that could confirm?

Thank you so much! A.

First H1B stamping appointment in Canada for Canada PR resident
I am a Canada PR holder and been working in Canada since last year. I came to India for a visit a few months back and got stuck here due to pandemic and travel ban and been working from India for same employer. Recently, my H1b got picked up in lottery and had following questions so that I can plan my travel and next steps accordingly:

1) Since consular appointment wait times in India seem to be pretty bad, wanted to understand what are the wait times in US consulates at Canada ?

2) Are appointment wait times in US consulates at Canada same for PR holders residing in Canada viz-a-viz non resident Canada candidates ?

3) Will I be considered a Canada resident if I fly from India to Canada when my H1b appointment is due (assuming this date to be a few months away from now basis wait times). Till that time, I will continue to stay back in India and work remotely (will have to move to India payroll for same employer till then).

Would really appreciate inputs and advise on the above. Thanks!

Fresh H1B visa approval at Toronto consulate
I had my regular appointment for my fresh H1B visa in Toronto at 8:30 am. Questions were basic.
1) what will you do in US
2) How long have you been working for the current employer
3) did you work in US before
4) do you have masters in US

The officer said the visa is approved and that i will receive my passport in 2 weeks. The documents he asked for were passport and i-797 only. I was out by 8:45.

Note: my DS 160 had ottawa as the consulate and my interview was in Toronto.
