Hi all,
I'm planning to go to Ottawa for my H1B stamping during May 2008. Actually I'm going to attend a meeting in Toronto. But I cannot find any open slots in Toronto so far, i keep checking nvars website several times a day, called the visa booking several times- but couldn't get any slot in Toronto. It's hard as i'll have to travel with two kids (little one is just one) and my husband is also appearing for H1. We plan to stay in Ottawa for two days and then travel to toronto by train to attend the meeting.

Shobana, can you please tell me how you booked visa appointment in Toronto, thanks!

Also, please share your visa stamping experiences in Canada. Did you take kids with you? how long did you stay in the consulate during your interview? I heard they don't even allow diaper bags and liquids.

Any tips about lodging in Ottawa, payment through scotia bank, etc will be greatly appreciated.

Ladies in Ottawa, please share your ideas, thanks!

Thank you all!

Hi smadhu,

we went to Ottawa for stamping in Oct 2006 ( H1/H4).
you can refer the following thread about the experiences

Personal stories of H1B/H4 Stamping in Canada

Yes, u r right... they dont allow bags, liquids... even the security people didnt allow chopstick also :)

regarding the lodging we stayed in Econolodge in Downtown of ottawa, and from there its 10 min walk to the US consulate and the price of the lodging is not that expensive compared to the others in that area.u can check this website for the price and availability
Econo Lodge - Budget Hotel Rooms, Affordable Hotels Motels

Regarding the payment at that time we payed cash in the consulate itself ,so i have no idea about the payment method now.

Even I am planning to go again in May or June for my H1 stamping.
Please do share you experience so that it will be useful for people like me. :)

Hope this helps to someextent.

All the Best for your visa.

cheers!!!
