LCP, not always. I know some who sent their apps to Seattle and were able to obtain their WP/visa. Canada is more stringent on granting visas than the US but without your passport and you don't have status in Canada right now. Seattle should have sent back your passport together with the instructions/letter for interview. You a month to comply.

Now the question is that ...should i apply for visitor visa for USA..and how many chances are i hv to get visa ??
I will show the appointment letter to visa officer ..
moreover when they issued(12 aug) interview they knew that my restoration(27 july) is refused..also they are asking proof of restoration as my applying receipt.......

You can try but you are out of options with your status in Canada, your restoration of status having been refused. Maybe you can try talking with an immigration lawyer or consultant. You now don't have a status and our hope was on getting the work visa from Seattle but Seattle asking you for interview is not a good sign. Even if you are granted a US B1/B2 visa, the USCBP will probably not let you enter the US because there's no way you can come back to Canada without a valid Canadian TRV/Visitor Record.

Try sending a fax message and ask if they could postpone your interview for a later date. They do not normally reply.

1. If you have no status in Canada, the US Consulate is not going to give you a visa.
2. I really think that Seattle will probably not change the interview date, and will make their decision with the information on file.
