H1B Dropbox at Vancouver - Timeline & Experience

[sam0314]

Hi Has anyone recently sent their passport via mail (using ups) to address mentioned to sent at "112-1231 Pacific Blvd, Vancouver, BC V6Z 0E2 , CA".
What does delivery says from ups, for me it says "Received by GAGAN" and say "Left At Residential", can some one confirm if they get same delivery notes from UPS because now I worried why it say residential?

12/10/2024 - Attended the interview with regular questions like Is this your first H1b? What are your title and responsibilities? What are your highest qualifications and salary? My Visa was approved and I was told that an interview was required as it was a new employer. DS160 status was changed to Approved.

How easy was it to schedule an interview ? I thought there is a long wait time to schedule interview

There were available slots within a week but the time was 7:15. I am unsure if these were new slots or exclusive for h1b interviews for Canadian residents.
