Just to come back to this. Approved for B2 visa, I was able to accompany my wife and translate for her. Interview was only 1 min long but the wait to get there was 2.5 hours.

Need info on below details.. can someone pls help me with this info at the earliest
1) I have booked the appointment longtime back, but due to status updates and education information, I have created the new DS160 form can I update the new one on the appointment day?

2) does the photo should be the same as the one we upload in ds160 ? or can I take the new one aswell ??

Hi, my husband submitted DS160 in November 2022 and got an appointment in sep 2023. When he submitted he dint had a job but now he is working. Should we update this using DS160?

Hi, my wife's B1/B2 dropbox application status was changed to "refused" today morning and in the afternoon, she is asked to appear for an in-person appointment at Toronto consulate. But have been asked to schedule only after receiving the passport. Since, there is a long wait times for in-person interview appointments, how soon will the embassy return the passport or can she book an appointment before receiving the passport.

thats up to you, but they do ask for sure whether you are working or not.. Then you need to explain if required.

Has anyone received a waiver recommendation from the Toronto consulate in conjunction with their visa application? How long did it take to hear back from DHS about the waiver?

Hello Everyone,
I have an interview at USA Consulate in Toronto on the 28th of March early in the morning. Is there anyone living in Windsor area that has an appointment same day? I am thinking of deoarting from Windsor area between 12 and 1 am same day so that I can get there around 5am. I'm trying to cut cost of hotel booking and all. So, if there is anyone in similar condition, please, contact me if we can share ride, or use a RideShare together. The departure time is between 12 am and 1 am.

Hello,

I am living in the US and applied for H1B extension while I have a PR card. I am not actively living in Canada, while choosing US Visa appointment from Toronto,
1. Do I need to select as a resident of Canada or a Resident outside the Canada?
2. Is the appointment availability in May 2023 if residents of Canada is different for the US Consulate toronto?

1. You need to select "Resident outside of Canada
2. Yes its different but if you are a resident of Canada you would be getting a Dropbox option
